Two year gap after secondary school

When I was 16 I was stupid and only applied to one college and didnt get in.

I decided to do an access course for finance as they didnt offer a maths course at the time and figured they would be similar.

Since then this access course has destoryed my mental health and Ive been doing it on and off for the last two years. I've always struggled with writting essays and the such and my access course being mainly writting has really made me feel stupid and incapable. I am able to work from home and if anything i prefer it but the constant writting just ruins me.

Im turning 18 soon and a friend reccomended doing a maths course at open university and doing my masters at a brick uni and I decided to do it.

I have not finished my access course and knowing I can go to uni and progress without it has made me want to quit.

However Im worried future employers will notice my lack of level 3 education and realise I will have nothing to show for 2 years. Ive always wanted a comfortable standered office job and im scared this could effect me.

Should I brute force my access course or just quit?

Sorry i know this is super long thanks for reading!!! (i know this is probo in the wrong forum but i didnt know where to put it if anyone knows a better place to post ill move it there sorry)
