    When I'm looking at personal statements for UCAS applications I want to know the reasons for going back into education now, what they've been up to since last lot of education and what they're gonna do with the qualification afterwards. Hope that helps.
    Life is all about the journey.

    having a nightmare day!

    Same here.

    Hi everyone just thought I'd pop in.

    I'm trying out some comping therapy to try and calm myself down. I just failed my second driving test exactly the same way as the first reversed round a corner too wide (I only went wide cos I though it was the kerb when it actually was a sunken grate). I'm gutted as I only got 5 minors. :mad:

    Hope everyone else is ok.

    ah thats a shame, you,ll be like me third time lucky, i ad 6 minors the 1st time and couldnt reverse park, 4 minors the second and took the wrong position at a roundabout:rotfl: and 9 minors the 3rd and 3 of a kind ( gear faults for coasting ) so should have failed but i passed........now my wee car sits there doing nothing cause i really really hate driving:rolleyes:
