Applied for Criminology, I do sociology, history and philosophy and I am predicted ABB. City is easy for me to commute to and they have one of the best rankings in the UK for criminology (1st in London). Other universities I’m interested in are Birmingham, Kingston and Westminster

For my final choice for Law I applied for West London but I'm planning on substituting it for City. Any advice on City's LLB programme?

1 - Speech and Language Therapy!
2 - I have an ABC in Art, English Lang and History, but I also have a prior degree in Linguistics
3 - It's the only uni I can commute to since there's nothing else in the South East and I can't afford to move away right now
4- Only Greenwich because it's the only uni in the London area offering this coure. The rest are all North

I applied for Mathematics and the A levels I did were maths, further maths and physics.
I wanted to go to uni that's relatively close to my house so I chose City :smile:

I'm also a year older than most of you guys as I am currently in a gap year, so hopefully I can find someone who's in same situation as me.

1 - LLB Law
2 - A Level IT, Level 3 BTEC National Diploma in Business
3 - Location, well known
4. Applied to Bristol, Surrey, Kent, Nottingham Trent

I wanted to ask, how strict are City about their conditions? I got an offer from them last night, however, it is way too high. I have an offer from all except Bristol (they haven't made a decision yet). Surrey (my firm if bristol does not give me an offer) has given me a requirement of achieving B in my A level. City gave me an offer yesterday, and have asked me for a B as well. Their offer to be specific, is to achieve 128 UCAS Points, including B in my A level. I had planned on making City my insurance choice as I expected them to only ask for 128 ucas points without asking me to get a B. Im predicted D*D* in my BTEC, which alone is 112 UCAS Points. Do you think if i end up achieving a C or D in my A level, I'll still be accepted? Because if not, City would be out of the equation for me.
