Anyone going to Coventry University College?
If so! I am so confused about what to do! I have a place there for a foundation year in healthcare science (1year course =£4800) but I am also thinking of retaking my biology A2 exam - is there any point in doing this as I wanted to go into Paramedic Science next year (due to no offers this year)
HELP PLEASE!

Re: Anyone going to Coventry University College?
well if you have a place there you may as well go!
your in! i wouldn't say ud need to retake your a2 exam again.
if you would be looking for accommodation for this place I have a house which has one space in it in a 5 bed house. Its a lovely house and if your interested please pm me
hope this all helps! -
Re: Anyone going to Coventry University College?
My grades atm are so bad though .. and as this course is only one year and doesn't have any "proper" qualifications ... i feel as if i'm wasting a year and money along with it!
I just can't stand retaking a year at college, i'd rather be at uni!
Am i being completely stupid?!
Are you going there?
Btw - back to your point, thankyou for the offer! I shall have to take a rain check on it !
- will pm you shortly!

Re: Anyone going to Coventry University College?Hmmm true.. I thought it was myself to be completely honest!(Original post by syrettd)
I would redo the biology A2 to be honest. If your only real idea behind doing the foundation course is because you want to be at uni, that's pretty weak.
I may just stay as an external student and then get a job and some extra work exp. to back my application for next year!
thanks x

Re: Anyone going to Coventry University College?yeaaah same! but thats why im not retaking because my dads like jus get in to uni and hes happy! ahha i really wanted to go kingston but i think im just being greedy now! i show me glad i got smewhere!(Original post by APatel)
Totally failed ... lets say i walked out with only 160 ucas points!!!!
But by doing this course .. it has no qualification ..so i'm tempted just to retake alevels ..although with the lecture i'm getting right now - thats not an option.

your in! i wouldn't say ud need to retake your a2 exam again.
