I'm supposed to have an interview at york this Saturday but my brother is in hospital so I've asked if I can request another date instead. Does anyone know if they'll let me do this?😔


Hi Hannah, I can not see why not!
I would call them and explain the situation.
It isn't like you just can not be bothered, it is a genuine reason. Your university should be understanding of that :smile:

Hey guys, I've just had an email from Northampton uni to do the online maths and literacy test, I'm really scared because I'm awful at maths! Has anyone else done it and what is the pass mark?

I did it a month ago and didn't get my results so asked for them and was told that despite getting 92% in maths it wasn't good enough to pass and they wanted 100%!! Although I know someone elsewhere who only got 80% so I dunno, maybe different branches are different.
Bbc bitesize is good to revise on for them cos theirs is more maths based in terms of needing to know maths rather than some others I've done, which were just too do with conversions
Hope that helps a bit

I've got a conditional offer from Northumbria for adult nursing for March 17 :smile: Has anybody else heard anything yet who was at the Northumbria interviews on Monday 7th December
Guys I need serious help,

Basically there's been a huge change in my personal circumstances and I'm now ABLE to resit more of my AS levels.. I put down that I'm resitting Sociology on my ucas form BUT not my ICT resit as I was suppose to have surgery on the resit date (hence I couldn't resit it as I would've been 2 months out of college etc)

So anyway, now I can resit my ICT, I had a meeting with my teachers the other day talking about resits (as I got DDU last year due to personal issues) and ive been put in to resit ICT Theory.. the question is..as I've not put it on my ucas form.. in which was sent off 26th October what am I supposed to do now? Shall I ring up UCAS and ask if they can put it on, if they can? Or is there anything else I can do about this resit and ucas?

BTW. .I've not had any offers/interviews (applying for nursing) as yet so I'm supposed that's an advantage? Anyone? Please help :frown:

Hi there, try not to panic!

How many full A-levels are you going to be doing if you don't include the ICT that you're resitting? Is ICT a fourth AS?

I expect any offers would be made on three full A-levels, so if ICT is going to be one of those and you're now re-sitting, I would call UCAS and let them know as well as email the universities directly. If you are only doing three A-levels including ICT then the fact you are resitting makes a difference because it could mean you are more likely to achieve any offers.

Hope this helps! Good luck! :smile:

Don't worry! Some universities don't give out any offers until after the UCAS deadline. Others do make offers but you will still be considered equally as long as you apply before January 15th. :smile:

Hello, I haven't heard back from Northumbria (interviewed 1st Dec) and then nothing from York, I rang the other day, the lady who does admissions is off until the new year, so no more interviews or any offers will be sent out until then :smile: when did you interview at York?:smile:

Hi,

I'm doing: A2 Sociology and ICT and AS Health .. so...yeah :frown:

I've applied to university such as Robert Gordon and Edinburgh Napier in Scotland (i live in England) where you need CC at A2 as minimum.. (I'm predicted: CC (A2) A (AS)) now because I'm resitting I'm predicted BB but they can't change them now so I'm really worried


I have no idea what I'm gunna do if I can't get into unis...at all if I don't get any offers from these unis.. Stirling (CCC- just tried it because you never know), Robert Gordon (CC), Edinburgh Napier (CC), West of Scotland (CC), Dundee (CC) :'(
