    They should do as it's an equivalent qualification - when you come to apply via UCAS check if you can list it in the drop-down menus and if not ring the uni and ask

    They accept English Key Skills at Level 2 but I am not sure about Maths since I didn't need that. I would think that if they accepted English then they would have probably done so for Maths too.

    I have key skills communication at level 2 yet I have a conditional from kent saying that I need to get level 3 in communication or GCSE English grade c by results day which is impossible :mad:. I have the UCAS points they require as i am currently on a gap year, on the course webpage only says GCSE Science and maths at C or above both of which I have.

    So i think for 2012 entry you need level 3 or C in GCSE English.
