Hey guys, i have to have applied by 9:00 tomorrow morning (due to teachers bustin my balls)

But im not sure about something.

When i sat my AS Levels i had a B in chemistry at AS in june 2010.
I resat This and made it an A in june 2011

Overall at A2 I have a grade A in chemistry, achieved in june 2011.

UCAS wants me to enter AS Levels and A levels, and this is where my problem comes in.

I resat an AS level chemistry module, increasing it from an D to an A. (overall increasing AS grade from B to A)

When entering my A2 level chemistry result, I put the A in for this module, as i achieved this. Overall was an A.

For the AS part, if I put in my unit grades with the A (To make the overall be an A at AS), ill have to say i got my AS grade A in chemistry in june 2011, and it would seem that I did the full A-Level in one year (and i did it in 2 years)

What should i do, please help.............. .......................

I dont want to use my lower score and say i got a B overall because in all honesty i did better than thatand got an A.

How did you get 2 rejections over 2 years?

Last year I got rejected on UCAS and this year I e-mailed asking of my chances and they strongly recommended me not applying as chances are I was going to end up with another rejection...

Snow Leopard here, applying for maths :biggrin:

Would you happen to know if Imperial interview math applicants too?

You are now on the list :thumbsup:

Imperial don't normally interview for maths. This is what they say:

"We do not interview the majority of applicants. People who can expect an interview are usually those who are below the standard age at entry level, some mature students or applicants who are not currently in an academic environment, and anyone we consider to be a special case."

By processing do they mean giving out offers and rejections?

Imperial has started giving decisions already? A poster got a decision from Imperial (in the applications and ucas sub thread)..

Hey guys! You can add me in. I just sent off my UCAS application a few hours ago.
I applied to Cambridge and Imperial for Computer Science.

When do you guys think I will get a decision from Imperial?

LOL Do you mean you also applied to all 3 courses or just the CS one?

Well since both of us are international students(assuming you are from Indonesia), we will not be interviewed because Imperial does not interview international students AFAIK.

EDIT: NEVERMIND...just saw that you are applying for JMC.
