    Can I go to Drama school without A Levels
    I am currently studying AS Drama and Theatre studies, AS English Literature and Language, AS History and AS Law. But I don't like sixth form college! and i don't enjoy all my subjects besides from drama and theatre studies and history. I'm taking my exams in may but after that I'm thinking of dropping out and getting a full time job in tesco (instead of part time which I do now) to save up for applying for drama school and for the fees if I get in. I'm 100% certain this is what I want to do, an BA Acting course for a career in acting, I've known since I was very young. So could I really get into a drama school without A levels?????/

    It's been a while since you posted and nobody's replied yet...maybe you should check out MarkedbyTeachers.com, TSR's sister site. It has the largest library of essays in the UK.

    They've got over 181,000+ coursework, essays, homeworks etc.. all written by GCSE, A Level, University and IB students across all topics. You get access either by publishing some of your own work, or paying £4.99 for a month's access. Both ways give you unlimited access to all of the essays.

    All their documents are submitted to Turnitin anti-plagiarism software, so it can't be misused, and the site's used by hundreds of thousands of UK teachers and students.

    What's more, you can take a look around the site and preview the work absolutely free. Click here to find out more...

    Ofcourse you can. It's all about the strength of your portfolio/ in your case performance. Maybe you should take as many acting courses/classes as you can, as alevels you have to split your focus, and really its all about practicing and becoming confident, comfortable, empathetic on stage.
