I'm just asking to see whether anyone knows how flexible King's are with their conditional offer grades.

I'm holding a conditional offer for History at King's for this September, and obviously I'm pretty excited about going and think I could get the grades, but because they're pretty high (A*AA) I was just wondering whether anyone knew if they were lenient, so still get in with 3 A's or something?!

Anybody??

I have an offer for History at King's too and was wondering the same thing. I think, like you, that I could get the grades but it seems quite harsh to not accept someone with AAA on the basis of what could be 1, 2 or 3 marks in an exam. I'm doing four a levels and I'm wondering if i get aaaa/aaab, whether that would be an equivalent. I guess there's not really a way to find though before results, unfortunately!

Hey thanks for your reply! Yeah I think it'd be ridiculously harsh to still be rejected even with AAA, I'd hate telling people that I didn't get into King's even with AAA haha! But I guess we'll have to wait till August!

I know someone who got into Computer Science with grades slightly lower than his predicted/required, they're definitely somewhat flexible. Don't expect miracles through, they're really sought-after.

I think it depends a little bit on your profile as wel.
