    So do they send you an email for you to send them your ums?
    Can't you just get it written on your reference? Or put it into UCAS?

    Does UCL want modules scores? Or is it just for certain subjects?

    Cool (well, not 'cool' if he is being a dick) If you can get it back you can put the module scores into UCAS (e.g. 95/100 A), but not the total UMS scores for the subject.
    Could you ask your 'reference person' to add them in the reference?

    Yeh because if you put in 100/100 doesnt the 'grade' bit like vanish so you can only see 100/100. And yeh I swear I have a go at him every day, the guy is a prick..
