    What about The Open University? You can study for a degree part time and some don't require any previous qualifications.

    I know there are programs that you can do that can ask you questions and based on your questions, give you answers as to what careers might be suited to you, does anyone know where I can do one of these quiz's?
    Don't take them as gospel though. I've been doing my line of work for 25 years and I love it. Did one of the online career choice thingies you speak of a short while back, and it came up with various things I've always hated and got nowhere near what I actually do. The only reason I gave it a go was to see how accurate it was! :rotfl:

    So I'm just saying ... tread carefully.
    Favours are returned ... Trust is earned
    Reality is an illusion ... don't knock it
    There's a fine line between faith and arrogance ... Heaven only knows where the line is
    Being like everyone else when it's right, is as important as being different when it's right
    The interpretation you're most likely to believe, is the one you most want to believe

    You do have a point, I cant let a computer system decide my future, lol
