Yup, I'm the same.
4 A's at A level, and 12 A-B's at gcse.
And none of this is useful anymore.
I was the same, i'd rather earn than learn.
I was in hospital when I was doing my degree, I was sectioned, and in all honesty, it made me realise how much i need to just do what makes me happy, and nursing wasn't.
Comes in handy when people are ill though, and such, i'm like the first person people go to! >_<
