Thats exactly it though.. it IS a means to an end... You won't get onto Midwifery without it... so getting through it is a MUST... If you just look at it as one of the steps on your ladder to becoming a midwife, it'll seem a LOT less of a drag...

Step 1: Applying for Access
Step 2: Getting a place on Access
Step 3: On Access
Step 4: Getting interviews for Midwifery
Step 5: Getting a place on Midwifery
Step 6: Doing the degree

You're at step 5, babe... but step 3 still needs completeing before you jump to step 6!!!
