I'm very much in my formative years, I feel. Currently in the latter half of my college career though, so I suppose that like OftenBen I'd be coming to the end of this stage pretty soon. I broadly agree with Ralph. However, I was thinking along these lines earlier on this month when I went back to college. It seems that a great many seniors have suddenly entered my year in college, and apparently this is a trend in other places as well (I was talking to a German exchange student about it). A lot of seniors are taking advantage of their retirement by going back to university and studying things that they never had time/means to study in the past. I suppose the formative years can sometimes go on for one's entire life.
