    About UCAS points
    I was just wondering. I got a D in A/S if I get a U in A/2 do I still keep my Ucas points from A/S ?
    Thanks

    UCAS points take the final grade (both years added together) into account.

    So if you was to get a D at AS (150/300 UMS) and then a U at A2 (<120/300 UMS), that would mean you would would score <270/600 UMS which is an E grade OVERALL in that subject. That is equivalent to 40 UCAS Points
