Not to get on a course, no. But my CV says that I have 6 GCSEs between A-D when in reality I only have 2. An A in Art and an A in PE. I failed everything else. Nobody EVER checks up on them though when you apply for jobs so I thought fuck it. I'll bend the truth slightly to make it look like I tried in school.Do us a turn
Anyone lied or blagged about a qualification they haven’t had to get on a course and got away with it ? Cheers
Yeah I would say as long as it's not a relevant qualification for the job you are doing no one would checkNot to get on a course, no.

What exactly are you "blagging" and what course are you trying to get on?

Yeah but that is qualifications required for a course.Most universities ask for scans of certificates before they offer you a place now
Daz, depends what type of course.Yes but I left school in 1992 so could I blag maths gcse grade
Can you do maths?Yes but I left school in 1992 so could I blag maths gcse grade
Are you saying you can't do the nurse training because you haven't got maths GCSE yet you've got 20 years experience? If so, this country sometimes beggars belief. We have a shortage of nurses but only want nurses who understand trigonometry!!Been offered the chance to do my nurse training , 2 days a week at uni 3 days with practical work . I have 20 years experience.
I could apply for a gcse maths course whilst studying but not sure if they would accept me
Its madness. Where I work, I know of loads of people shunned for jobs/promotions they've gone for over people with zero knowledge of the role but have qualifications.Are you saying you can't do the nurse training because you haven't got maths GCSE yet you've got 20 years experience?

Daz. Who is saying you need a Maths GCSE?Going to speak to my manager tomorrow to see if there’s any leeway
Ahh OK, can't help then!It would be children’s nursing , the course is running at Birmingham uni from January
And if somebody *did* find out there goes your career.Ahh OK, can't help then!
Good luck though and I personally wouldn't lie about the qualification as there will always be ways around it and certainly based on your experience.
