Doing an access course

If you are studying for an Access course, your college will be able to give you help with applying for university and very often your course will be focussing on giving you the skills to go on to further study. Which parts of the course have you found most rewarding and why? Have you done any computing or study skills courses? Have you found yourself working independently or in a team and how did you find it? If you are completing a course while working or combining it with family commitments you can probably show that you have learnt to be very organised. Your work or family experiences either during or before you started the Access course are important too.
