    Didnt meet conditional offer :(
    Basically what it is , currently I am studying a HNC in Social Sciences. I've applied to BA Social Sciences at Glasgow caledonian uni (Conditional), on the website it states that they would accept if you gained a C in graded unit, but on my ucas it states a B, now phoned up it is a B. I got my graded unit result back today and to get a B i would of had to of got 60%, I got 58%. I am so gutted, it is unreal. I am just wanting to know with a social science course what would the circumstances be in this situation.

    In scenarios like that, ring up the professor or lecturer responsible in that department or the admissions officer and discuss your results. Usually in these sort of scenarios where you miss it by the skin of your teeth they maybe more willing to curve the rules per se!
