What would I have to achieve to attain BBB At A2?

I didn't do very well in my AS last year and I don't really understand how UMS point work. What would I have to achieve to get from; D;165 C;136 C;123
to BBB?

Do you mean what UMS scores would you need? Well for the D you'd need 255 at A2 to bring it up to 420 which is a B, so you'd need a relatively high A. For the 136 you would need 144 at A2 which is a low B. For the 123 you'd need 157 at A2 which is a high B. So basically you need ABB. What subjects are they?

Thanks, the D was biology, which I think im going to have to retake a paper for. The other two were sociology and psychology

165 D-> B You will need 255/300 UMS at A2, this is 85%.
136 C-> B You will need 144/200 UMS at A2, this is 72%
123 C->B You will need 157/200 UMS at A2, this is 78.5%

If you manage to get 92% in the 136 C you'll get an A*

go for it
