Strikey Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 yeah its 700 tuition fees 155 materials and rest is exam fees its a nvq and this is my second level and im dreadingly going to hopefully go back to for a level 3 which again is going to cost me more. i though exactly the same they wonder why the unemplymet rate is so high its because no one is willing to take on people without the qualifications and to get the qualification you have to pay thousands and how you going to afford to do that no one has sort of money lying around at this age its ridiculous thats why i didnt vote Cuntservatives but bloody Cameron and his Butt pirate Clegg got voted in Rant over well level 3 is what i have just got onto and thats how much it would have cost 4k so good look to that lmao pain in ass it is and yes i know exactly what you mean. Anyway best get back on topic, updates coming in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
