With the scoring for A levels whats the difference between getting 4 and getting 5, do you need an A* prediction to get 5?

My UKCAT was 720 and my situational judgement was band 1 :smile:

I'm going to firm Birmingham and have Leeds as an insurance, though I'm not sure what my offer is from Leeds yet! :smile:

Thanks!!! Final question (bit cheeky :tongue:

), what was your PS band for Leeds?

Nice, both great choices! I'm not sure what I'd do if I got multiple offers, itd be so hard to decide!! I dont think anyone has received the grade requirements yet, i guess we'll hear soon enough!

The wait for Leeds is killing me! My ps decile was 2 :smile:

It's kind of easier not getting an offer from Edinburgh, because it wouldn't have changed all my decisions so far :') and it's a 10 hour drive away... Haha

But Edinburgh may be looking for different things in the ps, I think they're quite sports and music orientated... Maybe? I don't know...
And yeah... Just'AAA' is still lower than bham though so... :') haha
Oh yeah, 9 hours is a fine distance :P where do you live then?
