How many of you managed to have a part -time job and attend university (first year) full time?	robertsonam (16573)

Couldn't work while doing my postgrad as it was very intense and the job market had gotten so bad that it was hard to find an employer who wanted someone to work less than 15 hours a week. You shouldn't have any problems doing the foundation certificate, you just have to organise your assignments around your work schedule. It's definitely preferable to work a job with set hours though, rather than ones that change every week!	Siobhan Keogh (16063)
