    I thought of doing that but they say it's even harder to get into dietetics that way than it is to just get into an undergraduate dietetics course, but i don't know, i mean some people obviously manage it good luck whatever you decide.

    Yes it can be really difficult - there aren't that many places in the country that do PG Dietetics. I'm an UG at Chester and I have heard the PG is much more competitive than the UG, which is also very hard to get on to.

    Xsophiexmx if you do decide on that route just spend the next three years working hard at the nutrition degree and doing everything you can to enhance your PG application, including volunteering.

    I applied Hertfordshire, Surrey, Plymouth, Leeds met & Coventry, Got all conditionals but want to goto Hertfordshire. Im on an access course in Bio-Med Sciences and the offer Herts gave me was to get 15 units at distinction in chemistry and 15 in biology... Ok doesnt seem too bad however my course only does 12 in chemistry :-/ I dont know whether to ring up and say anything; also I already have a couple merits so I cannot get the grades needed anyway. What do you reckon?

    Yeah i think you should contact them, they probably misunderstood which access course you're doing or something. Good luck!
