Hi guys, I did do a search but it's not pinged anything up so sorry if this has been covered before.
I'm very interested in the RFA, and I like the look of the Deck Officer Cadet route. However, my GCSE results aren't up to scratch and I'm a bit too old to pop into a school and resit them.
I've been looking online and I've found something called an IGCSE which is accredited and recognised by lots of institutions, and it's basically a GCSE for people who are studying remotely.
Having been in the Army previously, I know how inflexible the MOD can be on certain things and I don't want to shell out just to be told that no, it's not good enough and that it needs to be a plain old GCSE.
Does anyone have any insight on whether it's acceptable? If its not, any advice on alternate ways of doing things? Thanks very much!
