Do you think you would be good on Radio or TV?

The BBC are looking for 16-24 year olds to be part of a new online campaign.

They are looking for people who have taken different routes in order to become successful.

Maybe things have not gone to plan, or perhaps you didn’t get the results you needed / expected.

• Have you had to retake GCSEs/ national5/ Highers? 
• Did your A levels not go to plan? 
• Did you not get the results to do your dream Uni course, go through clearing, or change courses? 
• Are you currently doing, or did you do a traineeship, apprenticeship, or vocational college course? 
• Did you go straight into employment?

Whatever route you found and grades you got, did you reach your full potential in the end?

If so, do you think you would make a good mentor and be able advise young people?
