Gemby It depends what type of college that you intend to attend. If you attend your local college they will probably include lessons in english up to 'A' level. But dont be too worried about that. The teaching environment at colleges is a lot more relaxed and friendlier than school. In fact, you may find english a lot more interesting than you think. Good luck.
If you take JPauls's advice you wont go far wrong....
thank you xxx
JP You would not be suggesting that you may not have to be too bright to get into Cardonald in anyway, would you?
I don't know how things are in England but here, it's the most sought after educations that demand the highest grades, and not always the most demanding ones, meaning that you might have trouble getting in to art-school, if it's a popular education, if your grades aren't good enough in subjects you'll never need.
basically the system sucks, here anyway. :(
In Scotland to get into art school I think you need higher english.
It isn't all about painting and drawing, there is alot of essay writing involved in the history of art side of things.
Nobody I know works in the field that they studied in college.Quote:

P.S. did you know that 70% of people whose jobs have absolutely nothing to do with what they've learned in college/university?
Gemby, from my experience being a good/talented artist won't get you very far.
You also need to market yourself well and have at least a modicum of business experience.
In other words, a good all around education with emphasis on art ( of whatever stripe) will get you the furthest.
