I was just having the discussion last night that going from High School to Uni is like going from grade 6 to grade 12, while going to Mt Royal from high school is like going from grade 6 to grade 9.

My buddy, who only completed one course, if that, at Mt Royal was quite offended. I am not knocking Mt Royal, but wow are their courses easier than the U of C.

Going to Uni is a big step and I for one am proud that I have been keeping my head above water. It is not for everyone that is for sure. I really don't want this post to sound condescending but University is an entirely different entity than anything else, some people are better off going other places, doing apprentices, and that sort of thing.
