Gcse mature applicants find it harder in the future?
so the goverment are scrapping gcses! do you guys think applicants with A* and As at school (A grades at A level) would struggle to get in places like oxford in ten years or so when the new qualification is considered the new norm and/or superior.
Mature students are generally assessed on their most recent study. There is no point comparing GCSEs from now, to what they were 10 years ago, for grade inflation is too apparent, and I'm sure universities realise this.
My girlfriend and I are mature students applying this year and our GCSEs, though stipulated on the UCAS form, were not queried by the uni, even at my interview. We're going to Nottingham.
