Oxford Brookes is not tory or full of Private school students - where did you get that idea from? Just because it's in Oxford [which is actually Labour controlled btw] is it NOT posh.

Are there other courses I could study similar to computer science with lower grade boundaries?

Hi there,
I saw Aberystwyth University was mentioned in this thread and though I'd jump in. It sounds like you've got the right subject choices and like mentioned above we require 96-120 UCAS tariff points.

At Aberystwyth we have a very long list of Computer Science based courses, you can see the full list on our website here:
