    Can I get in?
    My conditional offer was to get a GPA of 3.2 and a 5 in chemistry and a 5 in calculus (the American AP System 1-5) and i got a 4 and a 5 instead with a GPA of 3.1. Is it still possible to get into my university? (liverpool)

    I think your best bet is to phone up the admissions office and see what they say, but seeing as you didn't meet the conditional offer they're under no obligation to give you a place.

    That will depend on the discretion of the university.

    But you must bear in mind the immense competition for university places right now. Most of the accepted students will have met, and even surpassed, their conditional offers.

    Good luck!

    No cap on international students, though. They're still not obliged to accept OP, but there is a higher chance of leniency in this case than in a UK student's case.
