And small question dude, arent you 17 so currently doing your A-Levels? Correct me if Im wrong but there aren't any Btec A-Levels

B tecs and a levels are differsnt but b tec depending on the are equilent to a level.
I studied sports development coaching and fitness. I got 91% per of the overall grade which is a disintinction. And thts is equal to b - a* in a level grades.
Hope that made sense.

Level 3 Btecs. In year 10/11 people do Level 2 Btecs.

After Level 3 Btecs the next thing to do is actual experience in whatever it was so Public Services would be something to do with Military (British Army, Royal Air Force or British Navy) or Police Service or Fire Service or NHS and whatever else within the Public Services.

Who knows maybe my school is insane and decided to put Btecs in for Sixth Formers for the fun of it =P

But it doesn't translate to a grade? DX how are you planning going university if UCAS points require A-Levels which translates to points depending on your grade, or are you not going Uni

B tec does count as ucas points but I cant remmber how tho.

Well I am not off to Uni. Costs far too much. I would hate to go there and spend years working on stuff then I leave with fuck loads of debt and then possibly not get employed into some places because I could be "overqualified".

I think I will go to collage. As I am still under 19 I get a free year of education and might as well take it =)

I think a friend is off to Uni. The Public Service course is a full not a half qualification or something like that so it is worth two levels so if he gets a full distinction it will stand as two marks which is equal to like 150+ or something UCAS points. He is also doing other stuff as well.

I might be wrong on the UCAS points as I never took an interest in them =P

That sounds familiar, I got a "we found someone more qualified" email for shelf stacking at a supermarket. Who the fuck did they find?!

Well someone who has great skill at rumbling, lifting, placing and taking care of items.

Seems a bit strange we found someone more qualified to do Shelf Stacking.

Next they might find someone more qualified to sweep up hair or *Insert mindless task here*.

Personally the Lions would put me off wanting to go near them to ask for the location of things.

Also JC that could be seen as religiously offensive. D=
