UCL Computer Science

I'm also thinking of applying to UCL for Computer Science so this is my first option, in the summer my TAGs were ABB and I resat Maths and Physics to bring my TAGs to A*AB so I'm going for the contextual offer, I guess if you're going to take the summer exams you're gonna have to ask for A*/A for maths predicted which would be difficult since you've got a C for your TAG but it's worth a try and plus you need to have a really good personal statement.

Yeah hopefully they should give me an A* predicted as I went from a C to an A* in my Comp Sci A Level with like 2 months notice.

Good luck with ur application, have you sent it off yet?

That's great! I have sent of my application yesterday - I done PS and other stuff early, but good luck to you with your application. Hopefully we could both get into UCL.

Yes hopefully, where else did you apply to?

I've applied to Durham, Bristol, Leeds and Loughborough

Nice man, if your eligible for Leeds access scheme you should apply because it would probably make ur offer unconditional

I wasn't eligible last year when I applied to it, the only thing that's a bit of a worry is that I've got A*AB and their requirements are AAA, but tbh I'm not too fussed about since I'd rather get into Durham or UC;L - I got a Durham offer last year for AAB so just hoping I can get that unconditional offer as back up if I don't get UCL, But yeah where are you applying to??

Hi,
I'm in a similar situation this year. I have a confirmed place at a university but really want to go to UCL. If I retake a exam and convert the B in further maths to A or A* and then apply with A*A*AA do you think UCL will look at my application favourably even if I'm a resit candidate?

Hey, I am pretty sure that most unis don't care if you are a resit candidate. As long as you have the grades to get into the course you will be looked at in equal favour to all other applicants.
