Hmm... I have, yes, you heard it- I've been pondering. Well, thinking. Well contemplating what courses I should take at College.

Here's a list of what I'm doing for my G.C.S.E's:

English - Higher
English Lit. -Higher
Maths -Higher
Triple Science -Higher
Music - Higher
French - Higher
German - Higher
R.E - short course higher
P.E- short course higher
I.C.T- level 2 higher.

Now- I'm thinking of becoming a singing teacher or a professional singing coach for the west end- what qualifications should I look at- what are the best uni's for music (I'm thinking of going to the A.C.M????)

So, if anyone can get back to me with some advice- please post heeere!

Chiz-

Good luck with your ambition! Can't help you much with advice on courses I'm afraid, but looks like a good bunch of GCSEs you're doing.

I can only guess I'm afraid, niks. Although Music would be an obvious one. Possibly English Language and Media studies... Don't you need A-levels before you go off to Uni? I did music at Brighton Uni and got kicked out They weren't teaching me much anyway and on occaision I had to get up, replace the lecturer and teach the course myself. I'm not saying a Music degree isn't good thing for you. I think if you want to teach you will *definitely* need a degree, if you want a record or distro deal it's probably a bit of a waste of time, if not a good way of borrowing money.

Well, yes. I *am* planning on going to college. i'd be mad if i didn't!

I know this much- to be a singing teacher you need to have at least 2 or 3 G.C.S.E's in foreign languages and a degree in Music (And A-level, duh!)

To be honest, I don't mind the hard work, I just want the end result to be what I'd like- but hey, you cant predict the future can you.

well, am also thinking of doing drama at college- as a g.c.s.e. did want to @ school, but preferred languages, dammit.

my teachers all wanted to wallop me, i think, because they said i would be an A* student.

BTW- i'm a taurus, and i *have* been avoiding crisps as i find after one they're addictive and will lead to massive weight gain!

oh well, can't complain- fruit is yummy and dark chocolate is good in small doses.

it is not my fault when I was born, thank you very much. blame the parents.

am stubborn, placid, humorous (apparently) and i'm meant to have more common sense than most, but most of the time i act like a muppet so i doubt that. and we're supposed to have dark wavy hair- mine is blonde and straight.
