After we finish our A2's...

If we miss out on our Uni offer and don't fancy our insurance is there a possibility we can still complete an extra A level or AS level in the gap year at school or self study for the extra ucas points? (This is fine with the Uni, however I'm not sure if A levels or As levels can be done in a year?)

Keep in mind that A-Levels are changing after this year

If we miss out on our Uni offer and don't fancy our insurance is there a possibility we can still complete an extra A level or AS level in the gap year at school or self study for the extra ucas points? (This is fine with the Uni regarding qualifications can be done within 3 years, however I'm not sure if A levels or As levels can be done in a year due to the changes?)

I really don't see the point going to a uni where you won't be happy for 3-4 years when you can just spend an extra year doing another A level or resit so am hoping this is still possible?

Why would you pick a uni you don't want to go to to be your insurance? If you miss your offer there is always clearing.

That's exactly what I'm unsure about? Would it still be possible to do an AS or fast track A level? Surely this would be unfair otherwise

I'm guessing you could do an A level in one year still.
I did it last year.

I mean if you have your hear set on one Uni for a course and just miss out and can't get through clearing at that Uni ?

I just know that when I applied I would have been happy to go to either my firm or insurance choice - obviously preferred my firm of course but would have preferred no insurance and would have taken my chances through clearing for somewhere else rather than go somewhere I didn't want to go. I had limited options to begin with - only a small number of unis do my course and clearing would probably have meant a complete rethink or resitting the year (though not sure I could have gone through the whole application/interview process a second time lol)

At this stage in the game I wouldn't overthink it if I were you

Just aim to get the offers and then the necessary grades

Appreciate the help and this has made me feel a bit better but i just hope someone has the answer as to if we can still sit an A level or AS in the 2017 year and finish within a year? Of course I may still get the required grades but just want back up too

WHich website did you use or did you do it at school? Also even with the changes still?
