1) What is your background?

I graduated high school back in 2012 within the top 10 of my graduating class. Because of medical reasons I was held back a lot. I worked some odd jobs here and there.

2) What are you passionate about?

I am passionate about investing but I think the analyst classes for investment banks are reserved for 22-year-olds. I could try local investment banks?

3) Why do you want to go to university?

I want to get a better job. But I may consider getting a computer science major instead, hoping to create the next profitable startup. Who knows? But I do know the tech community is more open when it comes to age. As long as you are capable, you are in. :)

They are not. As long as you have legitimate reasons your delay, no probs.

Never discuss with idiots, first they drag you at their level, then they beat you with experience.
