I started doing my AS levels back in 2004 but had to quit cos of ill-health...
Two years on all the people I started the course with are all qualifying and it's making me think.
It's very tempting to go back and do them, but I really don't fancy going to college and having to study with people two years younger than me, cos I usually get on better with people older than myself anyway.
I've been considering the option of distance learning but I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not. Has anyone else done it and can tell me what they thought of it?

the other thing i would say to you is, don't ever feel like you have to compare yourself or be the same as other people... just because they've got theirs...etc. though if you want to do it for you... go for it!!
check out www.open.ac.uk if you want to start courses this October do the research now- I've signed up for DD100 and DD201 if either of those interest you or you have questions I'll do my best.
www.hotcourses.co.uk is a good place to look and some courses are a lot cheaper the ICS and have no adverts like "ICS-you can"
You realise some people are hard workers and others slackers.
I really don't think you could just say its 'kinda silly (unless its reall the only option)'....
