Have you thought about doing an access course? The course is equivalent to A levels x

I'm not sure about colleges but you could do them as a independent candidate? :smile:

Access course would be useless for me, because I really need to do 2 languages degree as I can speak 3 languages fluently (French/English and Tamil). French would be easy for me as I was born in France.

That's what I was thinking about, but how can I take 'French' as an Independent candidate?

You'd have to chose which board you want to do and contact them I think!
You will need to find an exam centre which will allow you to sit the exams as an external candidate. The exam boards have lists of these on their websites (google Edexcel, AQA etc), but you can also phone up local schools & colleges to ask. The prices they charge for this vary quite a bit.
try local colleges ie Kingston.
There's a place in London where I'm doing my iGCSE's called Learning Sure. They seem to do pretty much all exams with every exam board. You will need to research the exam boards etc yourself as they're not too helpful on the phone!

I don't think its too late, i am 18 and will be staring As levels at a sixthform. However because you are 20, your only option is to go to college.

I too was looking for colleges but could not find any around my area.

There is one called barnet southgate but i think its in North London.

Don't lose hope, keep looking and seek more advice, not just on here but in real life.
