Obviously not although i was just curious in general about Uni itself...
For the diploma course that i want to study you need one A level and 5 GCSE's at grade C and above which i would have had gathered in June.. although not 18 till Feb so would i have to wait till year later?

is it a national diploma you mean, because if it is you should be able to go on it at 17

For most medical type courses, there will be a lot of taught lectures/tutorials etc. so you won't get many days free in the week - perhaps 1/2 day to 2 days off a week.
For subjects where it's mostly private study and reading, the taught hours are a lot less - I knew someone doing an English degree and he was only in uni for about 2 hours a week. But he did have to read an average of about 4 or 5 books in a week. :O

You don't have to be 18 to go to uni. You can be any age I guess.

i'm in 4 days a week at the min, but last semester i was in 5 days a week. On average i do about 17 hours a week, whereas some of my housemates do 6 hours a week. It depends on what the workload is like i expect, cos every course is different.....
