1)UWE (Bristol Business school)
2)Swansea University
3)London Metropolitan University
4)Leeds Metropolitan University
5)Bradford University school of Management

And which is the BEST for Business Management out of the 5?

Edit: Predicted 30 points at the IB

[FretFul]

What grades are you predicted?

[Jmzie-Coupe]

London met is far below the standards of the others you've mentioned, from what I've heard. But I invite people who go there to negate me if it is in fact any good because I'm looking at london universities to study business at next year.

Swansea's the better choice by far followed by Bradford.

Brightons quite a hard uni to get into with those requirements, but I would recommend trying anyway, it's a far nicer location than Portsmouth.

The requirement is 30 points, she meets the requirements.

It can't be that hard.

Oh fair enough. I dont know anything about International baccalauarurrurururuates and since she didn't mention relative A level grades I was just making assumptions.

"According to the UCAS tariff, three grade As at A Level are about equivalent to 30 points at IB."

lol it doesn't work like that for Warwick, leeds, Oxford, etc, though I WISH!
There is a huge debate on IB vs. A levels grading.
I don't know why but they want really high grades for IB.
Oxford for example want 40 and above (it's out of 45)
Warwick want 37 and above.
So many IB students find it unfair, because those scores are really really really difficult to obtain. Getting a 33 would like fantastic.
So IB is infact more challenging than A Levels. For starters, it has 6 subjects, in addition to Theory of Knowlege-philosohpy,plus CAS 150 hours of creativity, action, and service, and not to mention the loads of Internal Assements and essays and projects sent to the IB.
So yeah, life's unfair, what can we do?
If only our school offered A Levels...
