Quirky George ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ๐ฌ๐ง๐ช๐บIf anyone knows of good safe accomodation for rent in Nottingham please let me know. Looking for a quiet one bedroom flat or a small house share with Trans friendly young-ish people for my daughter.. #maturestudent
An exam is rarely fun, but i can heavily suggest not doing your end of year finals whilst also having covid ๐ฌ
That's #A226 done though, and level 2 of my degree signed off! Thanks have to go to past me for her over zealous note taking and tab marking, I can highly recommend it!
The Man from Maybury HillLooking at all the various local universities and there is zero acknowledgement of older learners. Entry criteria are so focused on school leavers or adjacent that people like me, 50-somethings with 30+ years of work after leaving school are effectively stonewalled. What use is "all applications are handled through UCAS" to me, when I need to speak to someone about converting life & career into fucking points for specific courses.

I'm at the "using an online thesaurus to look up synonyms for words like ''useful'" stage of writing up my current assignment... ๐ฃ

JinxMe starting an Open University degree so I can study my own way and find a career I enjoy versus me having just submitted my first Level 2 assessment.
deantoir_ceardaiochtaSide note, I use the term #AdultStudent instead of #MatureStudent for a few reasons. But it's mostly because I hate the word mature for all the baggage it carries with it. It has the implication of being dead inside, joyless etc. While an adult is just a term for someone above a certain age.
