AS Grades

Hi,

I got the results of my AS grades yesterday, and they were slightly lower than I would have liked.

I got:

A-Psychology
B-Biology
B-Chemistry
B-Geography
B-General Studies

I would like to apply for Veterinary Medicine (D100), and I understand that this course is over subscribed. I feel that I still would be able to get the A level grades necessary for the course, being AAA.

But do Universities still look at your AS grades when you apply? And will my AS grades be too low for any universities to give me an offer.

Thanks

They do, but your AS results look great! Plus, you're usually predicted one grade higher for A2 so you should get the requirements or higher.

It's not just the grades that matter, you have to be a well-rounded individual and I've heard of plenty of kids who've achieved very impressive grades but didn't actually get in due to the fact that they weren't able to boast anything else. Get involved in things, make your PS stand out and I reckon you'll be fine.

Thanks Mickey2909,

I was just really worried about it, thanks, and I have done 6 weeks of work experience so far, with another 2 weeks planned.
