      I don’t think so! I am a big believer in looking forward and not looking back because we can’t change the past. All of the decisions I made in the past have led me to where I am today. The only thing I would have done in school and at University is not struggle in silence and asked my teachers for more help when I was struggling on a topic. Would have made me a lot less stressed!

      Probably not, I didn’t find some my subjects particularly easy at school (especially Maths and Physics) but I enjoyed them and it taught be a lot about learning new ways to study etc, which I think helped when I went to University. Whilst I work in biology related fields, I use Maths all the time in my work!

      Probably not, no. I like to say I “took the long way around” to get to where I am now, but I’ve met so many people and learnt so much by doing that, I wouldn’t change it for the world!
