[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 126154, member: 2672"] Ok - I would stress that you don't need to do your A-levels this year as you have equivalent qualifications with your BTEC and foundation year.

Given this, you may find that waiting to apply until you have obtained 2.1 grades will allow you to have more success - you can apply to a range of vacation schemes as a finalist or a graduate, so don't feel you have to put everything into this year. I would suggest focusing on your own well-being and getting your grades up, rather than getting too busy with vacation scheme applications. [/QUOTE]
