UNI DEGREE! NOT A WASTE OF TIME AT ALL
I have a Uni degree and is NOT A WASTE OF TIME!
I went to Uni as a back up plan just incase I mess up or no jobs in future. It is well worth going to uni. There are many degrees aviation related that u could do.
But I agree with FlyPuppy its a good grounding in life. You learn so much that will help you in future, working in teams, presentation skills, independency, meeting weird and wonderful people, it prepares you for the real world, you learn organisation skills, theres just so many advantages.....its good for interviews as well, it shows that you are willing to learn. If you do decide to go to uni it would be an advantage to do languages as airlines do like that!
You don't know whats going to happen in the future so its best to have a back up plan!
good luck with whatever you do!
