Not so great GCSE grades...

Has anyone here gone to king's College university, with average GCSE grades like C's?

Cs are thought to be passes - On most universities they usually say "at least C in..." you'll be fine with Cs as they are passes. And an Access to Humanities should be good ( I think? ) for it too surely

I got into Cambridge with just average GCSE grades like C's. As long as you can give a good reason (even such as lack of direction/motivation when you did them!) and show you have academic potential, you've got every chance of getting in if you do an Access course (or equivalent)

Thanks. TomU - If you don't mind me asking, what Access Course did you do? And what will you be studying at Cambridge?

I did an Access to HE course in combined studies (Law, Psychology and IT) at Henley College, Coventry. I'll be studying Law at Cambridge.
