Jake Leitch
Studying for a career in Social Anthropology
I studied Pathway to HNC / D and Degree which helped me gain Higher Maths , English and Psychology . After passing the full course at Fife College , I was able to progress to the University of St . Andrews where I completed an MA in Social Anthropology .
Fife College was there as my extra step towards university . I didn ’ t have enough Highers , and I thought I would probably just end up in a job that I hated . Luckily , Fife College gave me the opportunity to improve myself .
I loved the whole course at Fife College . I was in a class similar to one that I had at school , but it was filled with people of all ages who just wanted to learn - there weren ’ t the same disruptions .
ACCESS TO QUALIFICATIONS
“ I want to give the next me the chance that Fife College and the University of St . Andrews gave me .”
