Deciding On A Career Change

Walter Said:

i need help in deciding a better career change?

We Answered:

You and me both! GL! Oh and not sure why you need a job before getting a BA unless you are high maintenance or something.

Dustin Said:

Is a Third Class Bachelors Degree the end of my academic career?

We Answered:

Masters level courses generally look for students with a 1st or 2.1. PGCE courses that offer Masters modules accept students with 2:2s - but it does limit you to Education based Master's courses.

If you live in the UK - most University funding comes from the government with you paying only a small fraction of what is needed (will change when fees go up). If a student doesn't finish the course or cannot cope with the course and therefore drops out, then the University will loose part of the funding they get from the Government. The Universities, therefore, only want students who are academically able and bright.

Your best choice would be pre-master's course, although if you've been working in the area you want to do a MA in - then chances are that will stand you in good stead to get on the Pre-masters course.

It all depends on the University, your personal statement, experience levels and how many people have applied.

question about a major career change at age 41.?

We Answered:

More power to you - I think it is EXCELLENT to change paths...but what about leaving your kids overnight? Will there be someone there with them while you are traveling?

Is flight attendant the only thing you are considering? Is going to school an option to open a wider range of opportunities? If it's flight attendant or nothing than go for it with gusto. Find out what they require, make certain you nail the interview process, make certain you nail being hospitable, etc. Research research research - it will take you far.

Good luck and good for you!!!
