That's really weird! I studied AS & A2 Graphic Art/Design at St Brendans Sixth Form College 3 years ago! It's the one in Brislingston, Bristol right?
I had a wicked time at that college, there are some awesome teachers there! Do you know if Daniel Parry Jones still teaches there?...I have some funny memories of my time there! I also did an Art Foundation after my A-levels and I now study Graphic Design at Central Saint Martins in London.

So where you from, Bath or Bristol?

It is pretty Wierd!
Ask Dan if he remembers 'JayDog' who spoke really fast? He's an awesome teacher, a proper laugh. Yeah, I had him for Graphics and he's the dude that got me into Graphic Design. If he remembers me, try and get me his e-mail would you?

After my A-levels at St. Brendans I didn't really want to do an Art Foundation (even though Dan advised me...listen to Dan, he is always right!) so I applied straight to several Uni's but only got accepted at the crappy ones because I hadn't done an Art Foundation. So I took a year out and moved to London with the missus...taking a year out is a BIG mistake unless you fill it with something practical. I just worked full-time in retail, which was shite!
After my crappy year out, I really wanted to get back into education so I wisely decided to do an Art Foundation! It was awesome...I learnt so much stuff that A-levels just doesn't teach you...It's worth doing one just for the fun of it...but most Uni's (the decent ones at least) will only usually accept people if they have done an Art Foundation these days. I guess if you want to study an Art course at Uni, then I'd definitely advise you to take up an Art Foundation somewhere.

then when the AS results came out i was amazed tht i got a B in both
