      I found some courses at uni quite difficult but i think the thought of being able to help people and work as an engineer really motivated me on my low days

      Studying for my second Masters degree. I had a guaranteed job if I passed which was good motivation to carry on.

      I found some of the maths difficult to understand and I also find it hard to find time to fit everything in. Most of my studies I did when I was working full time so I always felt rushed. I paid a lot of money to do my courses though and I knew it would be harder to get a job if I didn’t finish so that kept me going. I also went to extra maths classes which really helped.

      Some of the maths involved can be quite complicated and difficult to understand. I enjoy the challenge of learning it which motivates me.
