Entry requirements

Original post by Brentton

Hi people, I was wondering about predicted grades. I emailed kings and asked what grades they would require for biochemistry considering I'm study a level 3 BTEC. They got back to me and said DDD=AAA , but my predicted grades are DDM so I am one grade short. Would the give me an offer if I applied or is it definitely a no?

I will appreciate replies

They would make you an offer unless it is a competitive course you are applying for. As your grades are predicted not achieved, why not just get your grade up to DDD?

Good luck

Is biochemistry competitive?! And I will achieve DDD but I need an offer, so I was wondering if they would give me an offer!

Yes, it is competitive at the top universities. I am pleased you will achieve DDD. Yes, as I said previously, they will make you an offer.

Yes, your predicted DDM is perfectly fine. It is only one grade away and is only a prediction. You will get DDD so on DDM they will make you an offer. The course is competitive, but not really competitive just quite competitive. On a really competitive course you would need to be predicted DDD at least to get an offer, and higher would be preferred.

I hope I get DDD! I have to work hard! I just don't know how to prove to kings that I will get DDD

You will get DDD if you work hard. What is your BTEC in?

I am not sure how you can prove you will get DDD. I hope you come up with something. I wish you the very best of luck

I took Applied Science as one of three subjects. My grade is currently being disputed because my school only gave me a Pass when I should of had a Merit or Distinction. It was a bad experience, but a great course. I just done Applied Science, but I am considering asking if they could award medical science.

Honestly, best of luck - you deserve success. I hope you achieve your goals and ambitions.

They may give me a distinction! It would be nice. I've had a lot of hassle from them! It was change of tutors that caused the problem...

Thanks, you are so kind!

It won;t be your dream for much longer, my friend - it will be a reality :smile:
