    Are you taking 5 A2s? Because if you aren't, what's the point in asking for an A in Latin or Greek? Surely if you're taking 4, then you have to get an A to meet the entry requirement anyway making the latin/greek bit completely redundant.
    Sorry about the rage. I'm offerless from Exeter.
    Yes 5A2s, but surely they could stipulate the A in Latin or Greek if I were only taking 4? I.e. As in Latin, X and Y and B in Greek would still meet the criteria...? :confused:

    I think the point is if you were taking 4, AAA would have to include Latin or Greek so actually saying "to include Latin or Greek" is redundant

    If you are taking 5 or more you could get AAA without getting As in Latin or Greek

    My offer is exactly the same are yours btw :yeah:

    I think you're good to go on that one. That CRB requirement is a little confusing though, never heard of it. I certainly don't need one for my programme. The UCAS checkbox does all that I need.

    Ah, hadn't thought of that...all this UCAS stress must be scrambling my logic.

    I think AAB offers only go to Cornwall Campus or those with mitigating circumstances.

    Hello. I've applied to Exeter for Economics, but I'm not sure which campus it is. I'm assuming that it's the Streatham main campus? Can anyone enlighten me on how to find out which campus I've applied to? Thanks!
