I got 3Bs and a C. What did you get?
Might apply for Accounting and Finance :smile:
Hey guys, how badly judged do you think my AS grades will be- I got BCD. Not awful, but a bit worrying. I know I can get the ABB overall and I'm retaking anyway but damn I'm scared.

Ask your teachers what they are predicting you, They will be what's mainly looked at.

Actually they don't really look at predicted grades at Kent. That's what the economics admission tutor said anyway so I assume it will be the same for all courses there. He said that they didn't really look at predicted grades because of most skills over-predicting. They focus on your personal statement more and also look at the subjects you study. So if you write a strong personal statement you have a good chance :smile:

It's really nice and I liked it a lot. The accommodation was great at Keynes Flats so you should check that out. I did 5 ASs - 1 in Year 12 and 4 in Year 13. Currently doing 3 A2s.

I think they'll still give you a chance and examine your application. What are you applying for?
