    Work harder to get the grade, but it does really depend on how many people get their grades to get onto the course. NTU maybe lenient to accept you.
    But all I can say and advise is to work harder, then it will be worth it!

    Obviously revise revise revise is your best bet; if you get the marks you need you don't have to worry.

    But might have little bit of positive news; I'm at NTU already and in the newsletter they email to us every few weeks they said that applications were down (7% I think- applications for uni are down nationally 10%).
    So they are still offering the same amount of places but their applications are down so at least in theory they may let people in who haven't achieved their targets just because they want bums on seats and class rooms full.

    But revising and getting the good marks in the first place is your best bet
    Good Luck
