My study qualifications aren't that impressive, but I have a 4 year psych degree inclusive of multiple statistic units & additional stats units done for fun and I never knew it either

Bullshit!
You could find yourself in a favorable financial situation in the future where you can open your own clinic and have people working for you (if you don't already).
A competitive field and one which has no real dead end. Possibly even further study allowing further qualifications?
Anyone who has earned a degree should never brush it off as something mediocre.

I also did an Arts degree with a major in Film Studies - not sure what career aspirations that was really going to help with,

I got my degree & never went on with it - I was really engaged when I began, but the Uni I went to didn't seem aligned with where I was wanting to go with things at the time. I was really interested in the idea of working in the sports psychology field, but found it very hard to find any Uni that took that idea seriously & at some open days/sessions, the idea was even laughed at - doesn't really fill a 17yr old kid work much confidence

Maybe one day I'll reassess things on that front - the last major career change move I made was to leave fundraising/marketing to go study tourism with the hope of moving into that booming industry... Think most know what's happened to that area over the last couple of years

Sounds exactly like me with my Bachelor of Arts in Sports Admin.

Never used it, at all. Waste of money unfortunately.

Went overseas and when I got back just cbf'd

Yeah its part of a set, along with "Amazing things to do and see in Perth*"

"*:doesnt include weeknights after they roll up the footpaths".

I enjoyed aspects of it, but I didn't push myself enough to go further with things

Same, i loved the sports subjects. Got HD for Football Studies funnily enough + had some great lecturers etc.

But the computer subject stuff I loathed.

If I had my time over again I'd look at a geology degree.

Unusual situation with demand across the resource industry but even graduates are starting on huge money atm, would probably find it an interesting job as well.

You just never know what is around the corner. Not sure of your age but I am now in my mid 30's and when I was younger, I had dreams like us all but life happens and you find yourself on this roller coaster ride. Sometimes we can fall into a rot and before you blink, 5, 10 years have passed on by.
Those who have made sacrifices to give it a decent crack is what it's all about in my honest opinion. Even if you never finish a degree, you still learn a great deal from the whole ordeal from a broader sense.

As for tourism, people are going to be hungry to escape. They are going to want to travel and explore. Of course, could also do the complete opposite and keep people more reclusive than ever before.

That sounds like me. Incomplete subjects one after another.

I just had a couple subjects. And 1 field placement incomplete- the "big one".

Criminology for me.

And i wouldnt even care if I actually got a job in the field, id just love to do it for the degree.

That would be fascinating.
I enjoy this guy's channel (looks like Andrew Bews).
He finds some beautiful opals




Geology would be unreal. Plenty of travel too.

I think a friend from school at least started studying that, they are some sort of scientist now although I've forgotten in what. Must send her a message on FB one day.

I endorse that. I work with a lot of geos and resource geology looks really interesting. Exploration would be cool. Business level analysis and strategy through to field geology.

6/183 isn’t much of an effort. They will fall apart at some point. The question will be how much will australia win by.
