oh sorry i forgot to answer the first questions...
well im will be studying at the london south bank university, and i got in with 8 A-levels, which 4 of them are A*. It was hard, cuz 2 years ago i got in for Law at oxford Brookes and gave up cuz it wasnt what i really wanna do, then i found this course but discovered that when they hire you (SIS, MI6, SOCA...) they find out everything and every single move of you in your life... so to have a better chance I did 3 more A-levels at fast track.. I found out that their assesment for recruitment is quite hard to go through (which is right to be) and like someone who used drugs more than 3 times in his life is automatically eliminated (WHICH WONT BE A PROBLEM WITH ME! lol)
-> but hey, what about brilliant people, who are just perfect for the job but had a wild uni-life and went to a few parties and got a bit crazy???
I understand why the protocol works this way and many lifes may be on their hands... but is it too strict? or is it just right?
What do you guys think about this?
