Uni + Violin - is it worth it? How long to grade 5 HELP

Please Help.

Assuming my A-Levels go well I will be at University in September. I played Violin when I was younger for a very short time but was active in sport so had to make a sacrifice.

How long would it take me to get to Grade 5 Violin at a Top Uni with a difficult Uni Course?

Is it worth it or should I just stick to sports and my subjects?

Thank you in advance

I'm currently studying quite an intensive course but I also visit a violin teacher once a week, and practice one hour everyday. It is possible to do, and I find it a fun break from working, but make sure you'll enjoy it. I'm working towards doing music exams, but I also like playing fun pieces, because it helps remind me that it's not all about passing the exam and getting a merit/distinction etc.

I don't do much sport though, so I have that time free when other people are busy exercising. If you really want to start playing again, and don't think you'll have too many other commitments such as sports, then I'd say go for it.

Hey
I was just wonderin; if i take grade 6 music theory and violin practical exams and pass, and i also take grade 7 theory and violin practicals and pass, would the UCAS point/tariff awarded to both be added together to give a higher score
