      Hi joeyboli,
      I did science at school (biology and chemistry) but really started to study science when I went to uni, and thats almost 10 years ago now! : )

      I studied Maths, Chemistry and Biology at A-Level and then did a 4 year Biochemistry course at uni. After that, I’ve done 3 years studying for a PhD while working in a lab and am now just starting my 4th year of that. So, I’ve been in universities doing science for 7 years now. It really doesn’t feel that long though. It’s quite scary to think how fast the time goes!

      I’ve been studying and working science for quite a while now. If you take starting science as starting GCSEs in year 10 then I’ve been studying science for 10 years (from GCSEs to PhD) and working in science for another 6 years. That is scarily long time, I think I need a lie down!

      I did the sciences at GCSE and then took biology and chemistry and A level. I went on to study Biology at university- and I still feel like I’m learning new things every day!
