Mathematics at the university of Warwick

Hi,

I wish to study mathematics at the university of Warwick, how do I get admitted and what are all the requirements to do so? And also how many applicants per place are they and do I stand a chance with the competition?

Any help will be appreciated, thanks

Thanks, regards

Apply for maths and physics and transfer after the first year, lower entry requirements :wink:

That assumes they will allow you to transfer - it's not a done deal.

Not a method I'd recommend for getting onto the maths course.

http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=46

which is the forum for discussions about "studying maths at university".

[To be clear: if you are talking about mathematics, the post belongs in the forum you're in right now - even if the mathematics is at a university level.

But if you're talking about university specific stuff like admissions, which university to choose, etc. then it belongs in the forum I've linked to].
Is the minimum requirement for maths here A*AA and a 1 in step or
Is the minimum requirement an A*AA and a 1 in step or would they also accept an A*A*B and a 1 in step?
Would most unis accept equivalent grades like this or not?
Thanks :biggrin:

It's harder to get A*AA and a 1 than A*A*A and a 2. Aim for the second requirement.

Nope, I'd go for the easiest option which is grade- AAA and S in step.

Almost everyone who applies gets the offer, so you don't need to worry about that. It's more about whether you can realistically make the offer.

They also give out less offers, a lower offer doesn't mean its easier to get in.

Honestly man, if you are unable to even find the standard entry requirements then I honestly don't think that you're cut out for Warwick.

Best to start looking at Universities more around your level such as Bolton, Leeds Trinity or Bedfordshire.

That's quite harsh. Though I agree with your first paragraph, but a lot of people overseas do not know this (that is to say if the OP isn't currently studying in UK).
