How did you find university?

So my Uni story is a bit of a funny one... 

My Degree was very Neurodiverse in terms of who was studying it. Our Course Lead said there was an over 50% rate of people being Autistic on my course, and frankly, I am inclined to believe him. Cliques were present, but not overly common, and there weren't many "rivalries" to speak of. Most people who stuck around to the third year were just cracking on with the work, and they were all positive/friendly towards me with the odd exception. 

Early on into my Uni career I did join the D&D society and was fairly involved in it for the first year, but I drifted off from it over time. I still have a lot of online-only friends I made indirectly through that society so it wasn't a waste; life just had different priorities I suppose. 

At the point I got to University I was at the stage in my life where I wanted to get my Degree and move onto whatever came next. I wasn't really as concerned with making friends there as I might have been if I was younger.

In retrospect this was true for me too. I studied Applied Physics and when I think of the people I spent 3 years studying / lab working with then there were neurodiverse traits on show all over the place.

It was a bit like The Big Bang Theory with Scottish accents.

I did mediaeval history, I don't know if it was age or ASC, but I found I looked at things differently to many of my younger class mates.
