Access 2 Leeds Programme ?

Basically... I got Cs and Bs at GCSE in all the right subjects which are the grades I need for me to be able to do Social Work.

The only issue was my parents pressured me into re-doing my GCSEs to get higher grades and to be honest it's messed up everything.

I could either do A-leves for the first time in september ... and I'd be a year behind everyone which upsets me.

I'm 17 right now and I am 18 in september is the Access to Leeds course a good idea.

What is it like?
Do you fit in ?
The work load?
Social aspect ?
Accomodation considering I live in London . .

Thank You

;( ....

Access to Leeds is just a scheme which gives students who are already taking a qualification a lower offer. So you'd already need to do A-Levels to apply.

Oh wow it means the person didn't have a clue what they were taking about :/ thank you !

jelly1000 is entirely correct - and it would seem that the person you were talking to was talking tosh. However, they were probably getting confused with an Access to HE Diploma http://www.accesstohe.ac.uk/Pages/Default.aspx which is a one year full time college course for mature students who are returning to education after several years away (this isn't you).

I'd suggest that you just go and start your A Levels TBH. You will only be one year older, which isn't actually that much in reality, but it will give you the best chance at getting into the unis you want to.

I think so You know... Thank you ^-^
