How I did it: I went straight into uni from year 12, without a clue what I wanted (and I still don't have much of an idea!). Through luck I managed to find a major that was challenging but one that I loved. I had a bit of a rough patch and extended my course by 6 months, and I'm so glad I did that instead of just giving up, because I pulled it together to get really good marks.. Really only to prove to myself that I was capable. :) I plan on going back to complete my masters, but right now I'm so proud of myself for getting my undergrad degree!

Lessons & tips: Stick with it, and don't be discouraged if things go off track or you find it hard to juggle everything. If it all gets too much, don't be afraid to admit it and take some time for you. Or to ask for help. Biggest mistake I made was not realising that :)
