Hi, since your achieved grade has clearly passed their requirement, you stand a good chance in getting an offer. What that would help your application is an excellent ps and reference. Also, what subjects did you took ? And i'm assuming your predictions should be really high as well?

All the best :smile:

I've already achieved AAAB at A level, i did maths, bio, chem and further maths, im just worried that because the Msci course (B141) has a higher entry requirements ( AAA) than the BSc (B140- AAB) so is there a higher level of competition for the MSci course?

well not necessarily. maybe the course requires a higher degree of work and is more reputable compared to the other hence a way of showing its reputation is by the entry requirements. the competition level for the courses isnt the cause of the difference in entry grades. as i see it, you shouldnt worry too much on it now, because your grades clearly qualify for the course so i wouldnt stress out too much
