“Hello everyone,
It’s Alex, I studied on the access course 3 years ago. I was the bald man that talks too much.
I wanted to let you how that I have completed my nursing degree and was fortunate to get a first. An unexpected outcome given I was 14 UCAS points under the requirement for the course.
I have a job lined up in critical care at St Mary’s.
I wanted to thank you for all the help you gave me. I would not be in this position without you.”
