Hi all, new to this thread, and am applying for Economics!!
GCSEs: 10A*s and 2As
AS Levels:
Maths A
F Maths (no grade this year as mixed some A2 modules in, however got rogue B's in C3 and M2 which i am retain)Economics A
Physics A
Chemistry A
General Studies A
Critical Thinking A
EPQ pending

A-Levels: Predicted all A*'s at A2 doing all at A2.

However I am concerned about UCLs no resit policy? The two b's in those two A2 modules I will be resting and boosting to most likely 90 plus on par with other modules hence A* prediction. What will UCL think of this???? (sorry for spamming threads, as still waiting on sending off UCAS because of this worry) thanks guys :smile:

If you don't hold a GCSE in a foreign language, what can you do to meet the requirements?

You don't have to have a GCSE in a foreign language for them to offer you a place. You do a short course in a language of your choice when you start your course there :smile:

they won't reject you for not having one :smile:

Course: Physics
GCSE: AAAAABBCC
AS Level: AABB (Maths 95%, Physics 95%, Chemistry 78%, Psychology 79%)
A Level: Predicted A*ABa (picked up FM)

I'm not the strongest applicant ;S

Ohey! I'm applying for physics too ^_^ Unfortunately I'm applying from America, so the exam equivalencies are a little strange to deal with but here I go anyway:
5s: World History, English Language, Calculus AB
4s: Biology, Microeconomics,
3s: Physics 1 <-- this scares me so much! I'm taking AP Physics 2 this year so if I don't fail it might be okay *fingers crossed*
(taking currently AP Physics 2, Calc BC, Stats, Chem, and French)
SAT: 2110 (700 CR, 710 Math, 700 Writing) / ACT 33
Not very competitive :frown:

In any case, I hope you all do really well; I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everyone!! :smile:
