A vet blimey you'll need a C at maths for that it's sh!t hard to get into, you have to know more than doctors to do that. Best of luck though with it all.

Just a farfetched idea lol, but really tempted to redo english (I like it lol) and maths and get a B in english and C in maths, hmmm.
Then figure out what I want to do.

I want to be in the police force, but it's just not happening, so need to look at other things now.

If you resit Maths and English, you cannot get more than a C as far as I know. Why not look into some courses i.e. do SageLine so that you could be a book keeper or accountant etc.

I am a scientist working at one of the top research institutes in the country while my friend dropped out of school, did a SageLine course and is earning a lot more than me.

University these days could get you nothing. It has taken me a year to find a really low temp job. Even though my contract will be extended and I will get better pay, I expected a lot more from a bloody hard Biochemistry degree. You would be studying for 3 years whereas you could be earning in that time.

Honestly, my uni research was excellent and I even had top Japanese scientists using my work yet my situation is still quite bleak. There are many courses so keep your options open.

Ah I already have to C's in English so that would be a waste of time then.

My problem is, I'm not sure what I want to do, which isn't a good thing when your 20.

I want to do something that counts, like the police, fire service etc, have even considered the army.

There's 1 place I worked at for 2 days and H.A.T.E.D it, they take people on every week in the newspaper, that's just how many people hate it.

The place is called IPSOS, and basically it's a call centre, you know them annoying phone calls you get asking you to do a survey...well it's that.
Last time I completed 2 days of training and passed the test, then didn't show up on my first day lol, think I was 17 at the time.

Anyway, after blowing the last on my money on someone's present, and I need around £1k for a holiday by November, I think I'm going to have to say f*ck it, go down and apply there again

I wonder if you have an Ipsos centre near you as they are ALWAYS recruiting, because so many people leave quickly.
