C in maths? Manchester want B... is it worth retaking?I want to apply to do PPE and I think I can meet their entrance criteria for a levels I (we will have to see in the summer though) , but I have a C in GCSE maths!
They request a B.
Their list of students must students must study a levels contains all of the a levels I study. I haven't decided what I'm dropping yet, but I currently study A level Economics, English literature, Philosophy & Ethics as well as Psychology and I think I can meet their entrance criteria by the end of A2.
Do I need to resit or is there a way round this.
Btw, I also have a C in GCSE Statistics and could take AS maths as a 4th subject next year if my sixth form let me.
Also this will be for 2013. -

If you take AS maths then GCSE maths won't really be looked upon by Manchester, say if you got a B in AS maths and you have a C in GCSE maths you'd most likely still get an offer seeing as you have taken maths at higher level.
It's best to contact the uni just to make sure
