How many credits do I say my Access Course is on the UCAS application?

I CAN get up to 92 credits (maximum) if I do every piece of work.The UCAS-adviser-person came to my college and said to put 60 credits . (60 is required to pass)

(TBH he didn't know half of what he was talking about, I don't think he even has an official position)

So... what do I put on my UCAS application for total number of credits?
I'm thinking of putting 92... since that is the theoretical maximum I could come out with. And it is also what I am aiming to achieve by the end of the year.

Not sure how it works in your college but my college give us a sheet with all the modules/ units that we are studying and their credit value.
We had to list each one indivdually and there was over at least 100 including study skills, maths and IT, etc.

We had to put our results as pending as obviously, we haven't done them yet.
Perhaps you best check with your personal tutor or college to see what you're meant to be putting down....seems strange how they aren't helping you through your UCAS form though!

Yep. Well tbh the guy did try to 'help' :P but he told us to put 60 credits.
We also got one of those sheets with all the modules and credits! My total is 92 credits because I don't do maths and IT (already have GCSE + Alevel)
I'm thoroughly convinced that I should put 92. I added all the credits for my [future] modules. Good idea, I guess I will ask my personal tutor on Wednesday.

Are college pohoend ucas what you have to do is for example if your two subject were psychology and sociology:

Pyscology level 2 the from the drop down menu select 6 credits

Psychology level 3 leave the drop down menu as it is and write 21 in the box next to it

Sociology Level 2 6 credits from drop down

Sociology Level 3 21 writen in bbox next to menu

Study skills 3 Creds Level 2
HE Toolkit 3 Creds Level 3

Should add up to 60 you don't have to write each modul because they wont be the same throught the country.

My course is structured like the following, with the total number of credits in brackets:
Psychology (15 credits)
Sociology (15 credits)
English (15 credits)
Anthropology (18 credits)
Study Skills + HE (33 credits)
Total = 96
So what the hell would I put into UCAS application? >.<'
