Re: Panic is setting in!!!
Hi Noo
Apparently our access course is a Pass at 50% and we get an overall grade eg A B C (which we have been told means nothing to the unis!)
What upset me was that we were not told BEFORE we enrolled for the course that it was a pilot OR how many credits it was worth! We only found out after we had applied through UCAS and recieved interviews for uni's and we were going to open days and looking at prosepctus's, which is when we asked how many credits we got.
We were all panicking so much that we were being used as an experiment without being told beforehand and that our access would be worthless at the end of it! The girl who is going to Nottingham is having a major panic at the moment as her conditions say that she must pass the access but it must include 25 credits at level 3 for biology... which we are not sure it does! the rest of our conditions just say pass, we were warned by one uni before applying though that we would need to achieve A grades (+70%) all the way through to get on the midwifery course but only C grades (+50%) to get on nursing, which freaked a few out and made them apply for nursing instead!
