    Having to decide on my CAO soon,
    I am intrested in motorsport and product design.
    I have been looking at University West of Scotland for a Motorsport Design engineering course, or Swanea for Automotive Engineering, or mabye i would be better off staying in Ireland and doing a CAD or Product Design course:P

    Any ideas on what these courses/universitys are like? Or any other ways to break into that kind of automotive/motorsport design and technology kind of work..

    Any help at all would be greatly appricated as i am way out of my dept when it comes to this kind of stuff, cheers.

    Like I'm not applying to go university in the uk. But Scotland has no fees. If you go to the England expect to pay anything up to £9000 per year

    Also you apply to the uk colleges through a British version of the cao. You cant use the Irish cao

    Yeah i have to apply through UCAS. Swansea is giving grants to Irish students so the fee goes dow to £3000. Best universities are in England but I'd have to sell a kidney... I'm wondering if these colleges are free for a reason,mabey there no good?...
