Yeah I bet it can be really awful when your heart is set on medicine! How did you fund it?and do uni's see that as a legitimate degree even though its distance learning (no offence intended here by the way)?I see your going to COWA...even though I live the other side of the county to kings Lynn, Norfolk is a nice place, an Norwich is only about 30 mins away on a good day and luckily for you a full 75 minutes against my home town of G.Yarmouth!

I'm in the military so money wasn't a problem. I actually had to stop studying 5/6 of the way through as the military are funding my medicine degree and they will only pay for your FIRST undergraduate qualification. So if I'd completed the module I was studying, I would have had to fork out ~£50k worth of funding. I'll probably finish it if/when I graduate from med school (assuming I get that far!).
As far as it being a legitimate degree, I've been told by a number of people that it CAN actually look better, due to the amount of time management as well as academic know-how needed to juggle the studies and real life.
