Entry requirements: 3 A levels & 1 AS level ABB/pass or AAC/pass

I'm doing 3 A levels, Computing, Economics and Physics, I'm pretty sure i can get the predictions of ABB, but the AS level pass, would they accept General Studies as that? Or would i have to resit my AS maths exams and pass this time?

I emailed the admissions tutor a while back about entry requirements. He said that they'd most probably accept ABC/BBB. If they're willing to make this much consideration on A level grades I don't think the AS pass would be much of a problem if you get ABB for your A levels.

But best way to make sure is by contacting the admissions tutor.

Theres one thing puzzling me about your post, have you already done your A2s or have you just finished AS?

Just finished AS's, hoping to get predictions of ABB.

Thing is our school tells us nothing about the process, so that's why I'm asking here :smile:

Does anyone know what the grades were reduced to for warwick and nottingham? Do you think that since not many people applied last year, they may be a bit more kind this year?
hope so........ :biggrin:

I remember for Nottingham and York only wanting CCC. UCL of course wanted ABC with an A in Maths A-Level.

Warwick probably did not lower their offer by that much. Maybe BBB or so Imperial is in a world of its own AAB/AAA needed and more than ever people get AAAA/AAAAA. Crazy at the top end.
