ExactlyA degree is more a mark of your ability to learn and apply knowledge and survive living on your own and all that jazz
I think I have this locked down. I'm getting a semi-practical but fairly general degree (Computer Science) sandwich course with a year out... I've been working for 3 years in retail and this summer I've been doing real freelance web jobs which I hope will provide enough experience.lizard808uk posted on Aug 20 2004 at 03:57 PM said:The degree is FAR more important. If you're going to be a fat cat like me, then go for a degree with a year's work placement since this gives you an edge over the 3 year people. (in terms of experience).
