Whats the best uni that excepts resits?

hi everybody, i did quite poorly on my a-levels (ABBB) and am now going to have to do some resits in jan. just wanted to know the best place i could hope for, considering this. i dont know which, if any, really good uni's will consider me - and i really dont want to settle for average although i realise this might not be an option any more. Any ideas? Thanks.

Contact the universities you're interested in. Quite often, if you're a re-sitter after your 2 years of A-levels, universities will make you an offer but ask you to get AAA if the usual requirements are AAB or whatever.
They certainly dont "except" resits though...
I would imagine that they would also take into consideration any mitigating circumsatnces that you have as to why your A-level results were not so good (that's if you have any).
I dont think you should consider ABB as 'poor'

Heh, reminds me of that conversation in Friends between Ross and Rachel:

Rachel : NO but Ross. We are never gonna happen, OK. Accept that.

Ross : E-except, except that what?

Rachel : No, no, ACC-cept that.

Ross : Oh.
