Mid range uni suggestions

I'd like to do some sort of business course but my predicted grades aren't that exactly great so can anyone suggest some decent unis that don't have too high entry requirements, please. So far I know I am applying to oxford brookes, kent and kingston

--------------

anyone?

Lol, I was about to say Kent. Have you checked the list of uni's on UCAS that do your course? There's a choice there that's better than any list we could give you.

I was actually just looking at that now :biggrin:

Aston

With your GCSEs there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to get higher than CCC if you put your mind to it

Northumbria? That's supposed to be highly-rated for Business Studies.

EDIT: Just realised -- I think their entry requirements are ABB. :eek:

ABB is way too high :frown:

And yeh I think maybe I could have gotten higher but I'm the sort of person who leaves revision until the night before so I don't think there any chance of me getting above c's especially since I've only started revising for this weeks exams today, and its not even revising I actually have to learn everything as I don't know any of it

Chester, Bangor, Keele, NottinghamTrent, Glamorgan, Northumbria, Kent, Brighton, Dundee, West of England, Kingston, Queen’s Belfast, Glasgow, University of Aberdeen, Strathclyde

those are some that were on my list (in order of preference) for maths, my grades being 260 points inc. B in maths. I don't know about business though, what are your grades and subjects?

ASTON! I think not, it has one of the best business schools in Europe! It is not middle range.
I am little protective of it.

Manchester Metropolitan. I know i'm biased but according to the times Business studies and subjects related are considered 'Excellent'

Grades aren't too high I don't think. Campus is called Aytoun, which is a Business school.

Btw, entry requirements for business are around 220-280 for Glamorgan.

You would probably get an offer for with your predicted grades.. or at least an interview then a decesion... You could definetely get your C,C,C up to at least B, B, B if you put your mind to it.
