Advise / Thoughts
I wonder if anybody has any experience on the following.
My son completed 13 GSCE’s at the age of 14 and left school and is now in his second year at Myescough college doing a National Diploma in Motorsports at which he is predicted to obtain a Distinction.
He would like to eventually be a race engineer in F1. He is particularly interested at the moment in Data logging/acquisition although he is very good at the other disciplines.
He has been interested in Motorsport for a long time and has an active part our part time/hobby race team. Where we have built and raced TVR Sagais race cars in Britcar GT.
For a 15 year old he is very mature and gets on well with the older students on his course who are 17/18.
Problem now is when he finishes in July 2010 the natural progression would be to go to university. However they have said there may be a problem with his age (social wise). They have also said he should look at doing a Mechanical Degree rather than a Motorsport Mechanical Degree (because of his grades)
Does any one have any thoughts etc.
