Yeh, if you go to an employer with a qual in ICT he'll say "so what?" - Sort of goes without sayin that to work in an office,etc you need to know the computer basics these days, you need a higher level like Jade/Col (i never know) said liek a HND/C

agree, experience seems to be a whole lot more important these days when compared to qualifications.

Fcuk college. Try and get a job where there's no experience necessary and work you way up from the bottom

I don't exactly what i wanna do in the future, so if i did go to Uni it would be a wast of time as id change my mind of what i want to do in the future.

I did want to go and study Midwifery but the more i think about it, the more i dont.

But you could get a general-ish degree like business studies and go into management or something?
