Do unis take into account the grades of a 7th subject?

The results of all will be sent in but only 6 will qualify for your overall diploma points (normally those you do best in but depending on legitimate subject combinations ) uni's will probably only cae about your diploma points though, especially as your 7th subject is at standard level (unis only really care about specific points in HL subjects as long as your overall score is high enough).

But one question: why would you ever want to do 7 subjects? I've just finished and I'm not stupid but 6 subjects was hard enough. If you want no sleep and no social life for the next 2 years then go ahead, but I would strongly recommend against it.

If you have anymore questions just ask

By legitimate subject combinations I mean you have to make sure you have one subject from each group (except group 6 which can be replaced by any subject).

Say for example If you got higher in spanish and history than you did in maths, maths would still have to be included in your overall points total for your diploma, and either history or spanish would not.

I hope this makes sense :P
