PGCE help needed
G

yes golfpro your probably right.
i kind of saw this coming, thats why i'm doing the GCSE's now.
just really bugs me that i can get all the way to uni, gain a 2:1 all without many GCSE's and no A Levels, but then again such is life.

London Met, Middlesex and Greenwich never gave me an reason.
as in i rang and was given no reason.

PGCE help needed

Hello, help needed.

I graduated from university in 05, with a 2:1 in sociology 55% and sports science 45%. I entered university by an access course and am undertaking both my GCSE in maths and English at present to get the C's needed to teach.

Among other things, I work as an LSA in a Maths, PE and Senco department at a local secondary school full time, so have had a good experience in the school environment. Out side of school I have represented Wales at school boy level rugby (which I still coach in now) and am at present a Great Britain power lifter.

I have applied to seven universities to do a PGCE PE secondary and so far have had no success. What else can I do to gain a position over a student with a full sports science degree?

Many thanks for any help.

Basic Question on the difference between an ma and msc.?
G

I’m thinking about doing a masters degree in politics at a local uni.
I have a choice of two courses, an MA or MSC. What is the difference between an MA and MSC?

I am asking this question because I have completed a sociology BSC degree, but also saw other unis offering sociology degrees as BA's.

Is one more research based?

Many thanks

Gavin
