ABE in my AS Result...... What do I do now!!!!!!!!!

I got
A for Sociology
B for Politics
E for Economics

I didn't struggle during the year in Economics I was getting B's, C's and maybe the occasional A, however I got really nervous and my mind went blank during the exam. The good thing is that Economics doesn't count as it is the new A level. However, I want to apply for Birmingham University to study Politics and International Relations that has an entry requirement of ABB and Kent which has BBB entry requirement I was also looking at the KPMG school leaver's programme which has the same entry requirements (ABB). Do you think I have a chance to get an offer as my other 2 subjects are good?
What are you predicted? That's more important.

Pretty good mate. I'm not an expert but i think it's your predicted grades that really matter, i think you could also resit econ.

Estimating at worst
A Sociology
A Politics
B/C Economics
Continue to A2, if your predictions are bad then you can smash A2 and then apply with those grades

They'll probably predict you AAB, ABB, BBC as AAC isn't consistent and looks a bit sketchy.

Don't worry about it as your AS Economics does not count.

If you got AB then you can defo do better next year! Good luck!
