Anyone's children done these? Anyone know how they would be regarded on a university application?
DD 13 plays guitar, piano and sax. We live abroad - sax is via traditional, formal French music school system so although she won't take UK exams this would presumably have some value for UK university entrance. Piano is for fun, no plans for exams. Guitar is her main instrument, mostly folk and jazz styles, learns and performs with some local semi-pro jazz musicians (again, no exams).
She wants to pursue music as a career, though not pure performance (she is interested in sound engineering and composition, does a lot of home recording etc). In the event that she decides to apply to a UK university she may need to take some formal exams at some point - the rockschool guitar exams look possible but no idea how they would be regarded by admissions tutors...
