@Jetlad;
I find the tone of that post a bit offensive if Im honest. Not sure you can be judging everyone by the same yardstick?!
Of all that you said, they key sentence was "If you (or your parents) can afford it then you should stump up the funds, pay for the best training"
Which essentially sums up your own privileged position. Unfortunately, not all of us have access to £90k and so the modular route is the only option. It is not that we regret not going integrated, as most of us on this post (myself included) are only just starting out on our journey, we are simply trying to help out others at a similar stage.
Your opinion is as valid as anyone elses of course, but try not to come across as quite such an arrogant arse next time you give it!
