How should I put in my A2 predicted grades into UCAS? And do I put all my achieved a2 grades into UCAS despite resitting them all?
Thanks

I think the teachers should put in your predicted grades, and yep you put all the grades you've achieved last year in even though you're resitting :smile:

Say you resat and then got A*AA but got rejected, can the universities make you an offer based on the A*AA on results day if they've got places left?

In my opinion the BMAT is way easier than the UKCAT having sat both. Plus you have essentially a gap year, so plenty of time to revise for the BMAT. In opinion also, I think you can revise for the BMAT and your score will be a reflection of your work ethic, whereas the UKCAT all you can do is practise, but your score may not drastically improve. Don't be disheartened btw, you're nearly there; just a bit more work is needed!
