Hello, I finished My GCSE a while ago and I studied a year and a half of My A levels however i dropped out, i really want to go to uni and i do not want to continue with My A levels, what is the quickest way I can go to uni? Also how many years of studying would i have to undertake to get the qualification i need for Uni?
Many thanks

The two options I can think of are an Access to higher education course which takes one year and teaches academic skills alongside or you could try applying to the university course you want but with a foundation year pm me if any questions

The quickest way is irrelevant, especially keeping in mind which forum you're on. What matters is the best way, the right way. (...And maybe the cheapest way!)

Another option is to just finish the A Levels. Unless you struggled, you presumably know 75% of it by now so could get a good grade if you did the exams as an external / private candidate.
