Hello, I was just wondering as I have applied for the E&Y Degree at lancaster and they have sent me the online application form, but how do you complete the education part, as they ask for GPA instead of your grades?
Thank you :smile:


I remember it being slightly odd as on mine it just said "qualifications" or something but obviously I hadn't received my A-levels yet. So, I just put
"Predicted A-Levels:
Geography - A
Etc"

For people who applied for Warwick, do you need grades of AAAB in As level? =/

I'm waiting for Warwick, so glad to hear I'm not alone! Got an offer from Bath about a week after applying, but I sent mine off quite quickly - they said at the open day that they'd do early applications quickly if they could. It might take a bit longer now, so I wouldn't worry if they're taking some time!

In the end you need at least AAA at A level, so it would probably be difficult to achieve that without AAA at AS, or without resitting some of the AS modules if you got a bit lower. The fourth AS grade B you only need I think for the AAAb offer. If you don't have that and aren't resitting they are likely to offer A*AA I think.:smile:

wait... i got AAAC at AS level, the C being in chemistry, with predicted grades of AAA, so are you saying they are likely to give me an offer of A*AA?

This is their typical course requirements:

A level:AAA + AS Level B or A*AA (with associated course‑specific conditions).

So unless you're retaking the AS to get a B,then I think you would need A*AA, if I'm reading it right. Whether they would offer without a predicted A*, only the university knows, but I've heard of people getting offers higher than their predicted grades.

Congrats. Kent is my first choice at the moment, you?

Finally picked mine, I'm going for Surrey, Kent, Sheffield, Oxford Brookes and Bradford.

I'm unlikely to get Surrey but I thought I'd put it just in case I exceed my own expectations, I'm realistically aiming for Kent or Sheffield (although Kent is my first choice)

I've also got an interview in a couple of weeks for the KPMG scheme at Exeter, so technically I get a 6th choice since it's done outside of UCAS.
Hi guys... im new to this, has anyone had any offers/rejections from LSE for Accounting and Finance 2013?
I've had an offer from Bath (AAA or AAB with Welsh Bacc.), and have been invited to the PWC Reading Course assessment day on 12th December. I'm hopeful of an LSE offer as i've had no rejections yet... i guess no news is better than bad news!

Surrey's my first choice and after that Kent and Sheffield, but I'd be happy with any of them three. :biggrin:

Wow, weird. What's your 5th? I'm not too sure about Bradford at all, maybe I'll change it.

What are your predicted grades?

Yeah it is :tongue: and Greenwich.

I'm actually doing a BTEC, so my predicted grades are done differently. Have you got any offers yet?

I'll look there, although if I recall correctly I think I took it off the list for having too high entry requirements? I'll double check anyway.

I haven't sent it off yet, will be doing that Friday I hope. You?
