Scott-EP Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Motorsport EngineeringYou doing a Degree in it ?? I'm hoping to start at uni next year and do it! What grades did you get from School ? Quote
BoostJunkie Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 You doing a Degree in it ?? I'm hoping to start at uni next year and do it! What grades did you get from School ?i'm doing the same at u.w.s all i had to get on the course was my level 3 nvq in light vehicle maintenance and repair.if you are doing so mate i suggest strongly get studying on your maths and physics NOW as i'm struggling at the mo with that, look up what you can on engineering mechanics and mathematics of space and change. if you do so will save you a bit of a headache and gives you a head start .

Scott-EP Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 i need to find a university near me that does it though i can see me having to travel away from home, im ok with maths and science as they were the only things in school that interested me and that i thought were useful lol Quote
Sparky Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Im at Swansea.I left School with an A level in Geog and IT. lolCame on this course and did a foundation year as it didnt have the right A levels.As Colin said its all Maths and Physics which can be quite tough Quote

Sparky Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 3rd year mate but 2nd year of the course.This topic was only meant to be about the TOM's sticker on the Forumla Renault but I got carried away with my phone camera lol Quote
Scott-EP Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Cool it's what i've been planning to do, I thought i would do General Mechanics first though and then go onto Motorsport Mechanics/Engineering, Going to look around for some uni around my area that do this Course if not i will have to go someone away from home will be worth it though Quote
Sparky Posted March 2, 2010 Author Posted March 2, 2010 Its really good, but I have lost motivation this year probably because it was such a step up from last year and I let every thing get on top of me.Gonna be resitting in September more than likely Quote
