You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

^ THIS.The amount of grief I got after I took my finals for "selling yourself short" from my dad (which is why he still isn't speaking to me) for applying for jobs that didn't require experience or pay more than £20k - a BA doesn't guarantee you a top-flight job, one of my friends has a near-perfect First and she's temping because she can't get a job even with experience! Stupid old people. And don't even get me started on graduate schemes - to my dad they were some kind of miracle thing to train you up and make you a millionaire inside a year.
As it is, I'm an admin bitch who speaks a bit of French.
