    How many UCAS points can I obtain through a BTEC Level 2 Diploma?
    I am expecting my A level results this august, I have 110 UCAS points at AS and at worst will probably achieve around 110 for my A level aswell...

    I've applied to a college to do a BTEC level 2 Diploma (QCF) in Music Technology, however I am unsure as to whether I need the extended diploma if I'm to get any ucas points for the level 2 diploma? Will I be able to get in to any university to do music technology without an extended diploma??

    Are you sure you don't mean level 3? Level 3 is the one that's equivalent to a-levels, and so can progress to university with.
