The only universities I was really interested in going to was Manchester, Bath or Cardiff and they all gave similar offers. I thought I may not apply to a uni offering BBB or lower because someone else would want it more. If I had confirmed a place at DMU on results day or something I would've took a gap year and reapplied so it was pointless me applying to those universities....If that makes sense haha. But thanks anyway, do you know what websites to look at for research? Since I couldn't find any when I was looking after my first exam haha

This is not exactly course specific but it could help a little. Also, you wouldn't have taken someone else's spot, because universities give more offers than the number of available places so if you hadn't gone there, it wouldn't affect anyone's chance to get into that uni.
Manchester want BBB from me (History, Maths, Physics) for their foundation Engineering course. Do you think they will be lenient at all?

I got BCD in AS and really wanted to go to a top uni/good city rather than go straight on a course at a place not as good. My A2 grades are looking to vary between ABB to BCC depending on the C4 and unit 5 exams.

It's very difficult to predict something like that. It depends on how many places they have this year, how many other applicants meet their offers, how good the rest of your application was etc. It also depends which subject you drop a grade in. Getting a C in History isn't as bad as getting a C in Maths, obviously.

Manchester usually asks for AAB for most of its BEng courses.

I think the earliest any events will take place will be the Thursday before (17th) but they'll be orientation based stuff geared towards international students. The earliest any major Welcome Week activities might start will probably be Saturday or Sunday evening as most people haven't moved in before then.

Any international unconditional undergrad students received their CAS yet?


Original post by bloodoranges
My advisor (or the person who has kept in contact with me throughout the admissions process) said that I wouldn't receive my CAS until the end of June since the academic year does not begin until the latter portion of September. We'll probably be given our CAS on or after 19th of June.


Hey, so have you guys received the CAS?

Manchester's requirements were annoyingly surviving specific for me. I need an A in biology, B in chemistry, and then either an A in geology (or 'geogology' as it's spelt on my offer) or a B in Welsh bacc.

Judging by how the exams went I honestly have no idea if I'll get in or not. The BY5 exam was so tricky.

My advisor asked me to send my passport to verify my personal details for the CAS. She said that it would take 'within a week' for me to receive the number, but it's been longer than a week from when she confirmed the final draft.

Have you received your CAS number yet?
