Uni life is good. I would say that you need to be prepared mentally to work, but most of all make sure you enjoy it. There's a balance between work and having fun, you just need to find it. Make sure you do all the work experience you need before you apply to the uni and look for placements. Also doing the Duke of Edinburgh awards looks great on your personal statement.

I am really enjoying uni life. One piece of advice would be for someone thinking of going to university would be to work more and sleep less. Also try and get as much industrial experience as you can prior to applying to uni, but also whilst you are studying, especially for electrical engineering
