      Hi ct, honestly not very hard at A-levels, I did not learn very well at school, but I worked hard during my foundation year and degree. Once I knew the basics, I have built on that experience.

      Pretty hard, but if you are doing the right thing for you and it is on a subject that you love that hard work is a lot easier to put in.
      To be honest though most of the learning came out in the real world, on the job. Education / degrees etc were brilliant foundations but my learning really started when I was doing the job I wanted to do. (I’m still learning new things every day!!)

      I worked very hard when I did my degree. Quite hard now, but I get to run my own project. I think it’s easier to work hard on something that you are choosing to do and it’s something you’re interested in.
