Hi just after some advice reAlly am hoping to enrol on the above course this week. I have had my interview and as long as do my Maths GCSE again I can do the course. I think I am gonna do the course part time as I work 2 days a week already, college would be one day a week and Maths GCSE at night school I also have a 19 month old daughter so I don't want to put my self under too much pressure as I have been told the access course is really hard work and you Have to get distinctions in more or less everything to have any hope to get on a degree in nursing/midwifrey. Which I also know are extremely tough to get on.
Over the past year I have put a lot of weight on and am stuck in a bit of a rut and feel I am ready for a new challenge but I keep thinking to myself I won't be clever enough to pass the course etc. Nevermind going onto degree level!
I am 34 and don't care how long it takes me to achieve this as eventually I will have to go back to work full time probably when my daughter starts school so I need a career thats gonna take me up till I retire I also would like another baby in between all this studying!!!
I also stupidly feel guilty about my daughter going to nursery one day a week (which I know she will probably enjoy) the days I work she goes to her grandmas.
I am just scared that I am gonna fail miserably and let everyone down :-(
Has anyone else done this course and how did they find it? TIA :-)
