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.
You don't enter AS levels once you have the full A2.

So simply your application should read as follows:

A-Levels:

Chemistry Grade - A

Dont bothor entering module results unless you got like 90+% in each one.

Cool, they're not too bad. They were probably the most traditional interviewing style tbh.
They questions from what I remember were completely random. So I cannot really help on that. However they more look at how confidant you're in responses. Also WEAR A SUIT!!! :smile:.


Good luck :smile: you'll do fine.

Wanna do it now? :biggrin:
They'd probably think it's one person applying under 4 different UCAS identities and throw away all our apps :frown: be funny tho. I'm sure we'd get a reply pretty quickly, it's not like they're swamped with applications :tongue:
also what are the possible interview dates here? It's a nightmare trying to plan a gap year around 'potential' interviews!!!

I've not applied for Lancaster, but I'll email them just for the hell of it (to help all you guys out cause I'm a nice person like that :wink: ) At least they can't kick me out and it's not like they're going to run to the other unis and tell on me... I hope :K:
