Higher education

How high can one go? Phd?

I'm not clever enough to do a phd but i might challenge myself to a masters when i get back.

A friend of mine, an american, told me higher education has little value these days. That may be so and of course, it never guarantees a good job at the end of it. However, if one of your passions in life is for learning and development, then why the heck not.

warnie,
i did a couple of adult-learning courses at a local college years ago.
got minor gcse for maths and english,
and loved every minute of it.
learning with others is a great experience,
go for it.

Thanks eric. I will enjoy every moment of it.

and good luck.

Life long learning

Not necessarily the exact same subject. My B.A is business related so there are a number of masters i can choose from. For example: economics, business administration, tourism, etc.....

Im meant more a BA English switching to a Maths .
