Oh right, for economics, yes, probably
i got 2 A*s, 2A's, 7B's and a C
(and for the record, i only call this mediocre against the seeming TSR average of 8A*s 5As :p:)
Then straight A Alevels
And i'm doing the highly competetive course of Finnish

I got an offer for maths without a single A in my GCSE.

Of course I didn't meet the offer in the end cos I got a C in physics A level, lol.

Couple of my mates this year got in with 4A*s+

Its definitely worth a try with your gcses

thats a pretty strong set of results. i'd say you're in a good position!
i think its important to get the A in economics more than anything else.

was the 91 one in paper 3?
yeah, that does seem a little fishy. i personally don't like remarks, but i think you should get it done.

91 and 88 were unit 1 or 2. borderline 45 D was unit 3. I understand that theres the possibility that i underperformed but it just seems really strange because:
1) Unit 3 is application of units 1 and 2 both of which i fully understand
2) Then you apply the knowledge to the case study which i am able to do
3) Finally In class i get As and odd Bs for it and my teacher marks so damn strict its stupid lol

Yeah, in that case I'd say get it remarked - ask your teacher too if they think you should get it remarked, and remember the deadline's pretty soon for remarks!
