Hey guys, firstly, apologies if this is the wrong forum to post in... there's a lot of them.
Ok, here's my situation:
I left mainstream schooling in Year 10 due to.. well, bullying. I wasn't happy at all at school, so my parents pulled me out after much... creative discussion. From then on I was home-schooled and it didn't turn out very well. I'd always done well in terms of grades at school, was in the top of most classes, but as soon as I took my GCSEs, everything went south. I ended up with terrible grades and I still kick myself about it now.
I took my Adult Literacy and Numeracy Level 2 tests a year after officially finishing school and passed both, which left me with an English and Maths GCSE equivalent of A* - C. I'm now going to college, after two years of thinking whether or not to go, to do a BTEC Level 2 in Applied Science, which if I pass, gives me four more GCSE equivalents of A* - C.
My predicament is, I want to go to University eventually to study Egyptology and Archaeology, which after looking around a lot, I need roughly ABB/AAB in my A Levels to get onto the undergraduate course. Now, will I be able to take my A Levels (I plan on taking four) with my BTEC and A.L.A.N Level 2 qualifications? In total, at the end of the 2014 academic year, I will have 6 GCSE equivalents of A* - C in English, Maths and Science. Is it enough? Or is it up to the college themselves whether or not to take those qualifications?
Any help would be appreciated and apologies if I've rambled on a bit. Thanks.
