I went to a progression day this last week and learned that the Access Course (Health and Health Care Science) I attempted to apply for was full - way oversubscribed. They were confident that all those that had already gone through each stage and enrolled, would turn up, so there were many more than me that were left disappointed.
I was offered a conditional place, but I decided to defer to next year and get a full year of healthcare experience behind me so that it will look much better on my UCAS application.
Has anyone else deferred their year for any particular reason, or did anyone defer last year and find that they benefitted from that decision?
I am a mature (very lol) student wishing to do midwifery which will now be 2016
