I got my A-Level results the other day and they were not good, only did one a-level which was Business Studies, but i dunno wether to:
1: Go back to college get more a-levels then go Uni
or
2: Theres a trainee CAD technician Placement in my area, and this supplies me with a chance to get an HND which will take 3-4 years im told, but pay is shite.
Not sure what to do, would like to go UNI, but dunno what root to take.

If you like doing practical stuff go the b-tec/HND route, if you like theory go the degree route.
I failed a-levels, still got in uni it was shite now im on HND at salford uni and i love it, its alot more interesting than a degree or a-levels and you acually learn useful stuff.

thats bad, go back to college, but really look at all the courses, you never know what you will be interested in. Bear in mind, everyone is doing computing and jobs are becomming scarce!
