Hi,
I'm currently 19 years old and do not have any A Levels, as I had to drop out of college due to very ill health when I enrolled in 2018.
I got all 9s at GCSE and am looking to continue my education journey.
I like the prospect of being a Lawyer, or somewhere within the law-politics landscape.
I currently work full time so am looking for distanced learning course(s).
I am torn between starting 3 A Levels or starting an Access to HE Diploma. Both can be done online, it's just a question of which carries more weight. I would most likely do Politics, Law and ? at A Level or an Access to HE Diploma in Law.
I would like to go to a top 10 university in London to do an LLB, most likely, so was wondering if you had any advice as to whether an Access to HE Diploma would be enough to get me into UCL or QMUL? I would like to enrol by January 2022, with a view to starting in September 2022.
I am aware that schemes exist in large companies that take on A Level Leavers and you can study a degree alongside one of those positions. How common are they? Is that a possibility?
Any advice would be appreciated. What do you think I should do?
