I have received a certification in law

What can I do with it?? My university dropped me because I didn't get enough credits and they didn't even help me so they just dropped me which is a blessing disguise because I don't want to study anymore

What's the specific qualification? Is it a HNC?
If so, it's not much in terms of qualifications. Most jobs in law or law related professions tend to ask for full degrees.

If you want to work in law, then I think you should be fine with degree apprenticeships in law (which involves studying) or work as a paralegal.

If you don't want to work in law or the legal sector, then you need to be specific.
I would investigate if a job as a paralegal is a possibility (although i dont know if they require a degree or not).

Other then that I think you’re probably looking at jobs & industries with very generic requirements.

It's in law and I could do university again, so you have to get HND then a degree in law with hons. Or I could work it really depends, but I think I'm gonna go to university again... my experience in uni has been **** but that's really my fault. I am holding myself accountable.

If its a 'Cert HE', which is usually what you'd receive for 1 year of Uni study, then you could still finish a degree with the Open University - Law Courses | Law | The Open University - or look at apprenticeships Find an apprenticeship - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) - or a job in the civil service - Civil Service job search - Civil Service Jobs - GOV.UK

What do you intend to do at uni? Stay in law but at a different uni?

If you want to work, what would you want to do?
Whilst you can do a lot with just A Levels alone, you do have a partially completed degree that's somewhat asked for in the legal sector and legal roles.
