Great idea for a thread :h:

Yeah, I do!

It's tough! I had another assignment today. Doesn't seem too bad though.

Damn kiddo, what did you pick subjects wise as I know you can select modules or something, so I'm guessing biology and chemistry? I ask this as I plan to do one this year after A Levels since I chose the wrong subjects and have to find a route to Science some how :/

Well there's different subject access courses, science-based, humanities-based, etc.

Mine consists of psychology, chemistry, anatomy & physiology, microbiology and an extended research essay on a topic of my choice.
Each of these subjects is roughly 1/2 of AS and 1/2 of A2

If you're 19 or over, you can do an access course. But if you chose the wrong a-levels, perhaps a foundation year might be better for you.

Oh nice, is Radiography something you've been into for a while?

I've looked, it's either an access course or taking on two new A Levels. Foundation year usually applies to a C or above at A Level for science based subjects except a few universities do openly invite those with humanities based subjects

Yeah! It's really cool and there's lots of modalities.

Or gateway or something? I was under the impression there was something available for those who chose the wrong a-levels.

What are you looking to get into?
