This uni has exceeded my expectations very much so since joining this year.

I really want to study Criminology and the Media at Essex but the requirements are ABB-BBB.
I already have two A levels at C grades - media and film and I'm currently studying English which realistically I think I'll get a D, though hopefully a C.
I have a distinction* in Law at Btec diploma, distinction* in public services btec certificate and a distinction* in business studies btec diploma.
I'm wondering if I should even bother applying and if I have any chance at all!

I have applied for MSc in Biotechnology, got an offer though. But Is it good for Biological Sciences?, I mean, I know it is famous for Social Science, or Economics.

I am going to be blunt with you... You have no chance at all.
I am applying for Biochemistry which is at the Colchester campus! Anyone else applying for Biochem?

Sorry if that came across so harsh. But think about all the other applicants meeting or even exceeding the requirements? Courses like that are so popular that they will only accept people who get the grades. Some unis may offer lower grade requirements...?

I have applied to Essex and just wandered what sort of offer i may get. I have applied for mathematics and am currently taking maths further maths and ict. Just wanted to know if anyone has already got an offer and what it was because i know they say their offer will probably be AAB/ABB but i know their offers were BBB last year and i didn't know because i take further maths that it might be different?

No that's fine, honestly! The only reason I'm even enquiring is because Essex offers Criminology and The Media, something I can't seem to find anywhere else!
