Hey,
I made a thread a few days ago about not continuing two of my three AS and replacing them with others at another college. I didn't feel like this question really fit in with that thread, so I've made a new one.
I'm pretty certain that I won't get any higher than a C in Biology or Religious Studies (even though RS is really easy), and I'm going to drop them and change college to one closer to me, and I'm going to take up four other AS levels.
What I'm worried about is when the time comes to apply to a University, and I'm really aiming for the top - Cambridge would be nice, Imperial too, etc.
Will those dropped AS grades come back to haunt me on the UCAS sheet? Even if I have AAAA in the 4 I'll take up (and the A2 English I didn't drop and will have continued) won't having a c and a d in two dropped AS subjects look bad?
Or do I not have to explicitly state it? Because right now I'm going a little crazy. I want to do the best I can for all of my subjects, but I know I won't do that well, and I don't want to jeopardise my future.
Thanks
EDIT: Just for clarification I have viable reasons for getting low grades in those two subjects - I was pretty much forced to take them since they didn't offer what I wanted to do (Computing & Classical Civ) and I couldn't do Maths AS because I got a D on my Maths GCSE since they only taught Foundation Level and despite getting 69/69 on the Unit 2 Foundation exam I decided to sit them all again at Higher after going back and forth on the prospect for months (which took away from my study time) and realised that the teaching wasn't sufficient and I ended up with a D. My grade was carried down due to the fact that I got a U in Unit 3, and I'm still not sure how, because that was in June and when I retook the exam in a linear format in the following November, I achieved an easy B. Going from D to B with virtually no revision is a bit dubious. So I only had the prospect of doing AS Maths AFTER I had started my AS. And that's partially why I want to start them again.
