My offers for University are AAA and AAB.

I have just got C/D in my English Literature Coursework (raw marks conversion)

What can I do? And is there any chance it might convert into higher UMS marks?
Also, should I e-mail the university to try negotiate the offer? For example, it's possible I could get an A* in politics, so ask for an A*AB offer?

Please help, I really need some words of encouragement

You can attempt to redo your AS next year, as the set texts are unlikely to change. All you'll have to do is redo your coursework and re-prepare for exams. Bear in mind though that many universities now frown on retakes, so you need to weigh up the pro's and con's.

It's always a good idea to keep in close contact with your university - there's no loss in trying to talk to them so long as you present yourself maturely and professionally. However, individual acceptance offers changing are unlikely prior to interview. Occasionally, universities will modify their offers for specific candidates based on their interview/personal statement, but this is a rarity. In general the requirements are baseline for everyonel.

In order to overcome this, I suggest you:

Ask your university how they view retakes (actually ask, don't just look at the website as often universities will present information ambiguously on websites.)

Prepare yourself for the possibility of retaking.

Study extremely hard so that you achieve top grades for the upcoming exams - you may well find that they boost you considerably.

Consider taking on an extended project next year if you don't do so well in the upcoming English exam. That way you at least show unique dedication and an attempt at repentance.

Most of all, keep calm. One grade being lower than it should be does not signify doom and failure. It's a hitch, but there are ways to overcome it, even if they move you out of the ideal situation we'd all like to be in.

Good luck
