Having said that - wouldn't mind trying ithe USA myself, as I would contract for a certain number of hours (just slightly more than the minimum to get the employer health benefits) and have lots of time for leisure & pleasure. Then again, only 12 years to retirement so might not.

Also your 'A' levels are not necessarily a barometer for how you will do in your degree. Uni is a different enviroment. Go with the work hard, play hard mindset and you can get your 2:1

Yer I mean if I have got onto a established pharmacy school I am not that bad.
