I'm just coming to the end of my first year of uni studying mechanical Engineering and I feel I've noticed something strange. In college it felt like we were treated as adults more in varying senses but within uni being treated as a student in this way often makes me feel like I'm being treated like a child or younger student again. It's probably related to this being more often the next step for sixth form students so students are treated as such, similarly I've found the curriculum to have a heavy preference to non practical students or those who took A levels as opposed to Btecs or other equivalents. Has anyone else found this issue during uni or have any suggestions?
