heeman10 sounds like you got a good attitude to learning and know what you want to do which is very important i think. My other half was looking to start a course in something completely different but came across a similar stumbling block, how do you know the course is right for your? that the university is good and will teach you enough properly enabling you to gain work afterwards? How do you find information out as UCAS tells defines entry requirements and the university leaflets an books are basically like adverts like you get at travel centres trying to sell you a holiday to spain.
