I am stuck on what to do! I have just finished my a-levels having done graphics and ict but now i am not sure whether to go to college and do designing courses or stay on at school and do graphics there although you don't learn anything there you use what you know already whereas in college i rekon that i would get taught how to use programs such as photoshop better. If i were to go to college i would like to do courses to do with designign only using computers. The courses i would like to do are 3D Design and Design with programs such as photoshop,paint shop pro etc...
Was just wondering what you guys would recommend? Thanks Sauron |

I've got limited knowledge of how the school system works in the UK. But speaking from my own experience is that a collage-exam or degrees from classes is worth a lot. At least here in Sweden...
So yeah, my "recomendation" would be to give collage a chance and hopefully learn something new.

If you wanna get somewhere; the more you know - all the better.

You will always learn a lot more in college, as you won't be studying several different subjects, but instead particular subjects that you want to study. don't be a fool, get out of school. Get into college, or end up on the dole.....age!

If I were your age Sauron, having just finished my A-levels at school the next logical step would be to go to college. Most colleges if not all hold open days/evenings, where you could drop in and talk to tutors/lecturers about various subjects, and they can advise you about what course of action to take. Also as lots of subjects these days have certain qualification requirements before you do the course/s should your A-level's not be of the grade there after you can re-sit/take whilst studying your desired course.

Well, also remember to do something you enjoy. So many people go to college to learn a subject that could earn them lots of money, but then fail because they aren't interested in what they are learning. You obviously enjoy art and design, which is why you are here. So if I were you, I would look for a more specialist college
