      University
      Jul 19, 2011 11:29:03 am
      Hey all. I'm currently doing the IGCSE (which is recognized as an equivalent to the GCSE). I'm finishing 8 subjects, O-Level. Not doing A-Levels because i really am in a hurry; and was wondering about the possibilities of getting into university with just O-Levels. Been searching online but haven't found a clear response. Most unis are demanding 2 or 3 A Levels.

      My intention is to move to Canada to live with my girlfriend but i've no idea yet on how my chances look like education-wise. But surely you britfags can help on that matter? :P

      Depends on the subject that your looking to study.. you could take an access course which will secure you the relevant qualifications to start a degree, without doing traditional A-Levels. They can sometimes be done through the University, but usually studied at a college.

      Other than that being a "Britfag" can't really help!

      Young people and their slang these days.  :roll:

      But like RedtilDead said doing an access course will help.

      Probably could merge this with the existing School/Uni/etc thread right? Might find some answers in there somewhere.
