hi,
can anyone tell me if you need to put all your units for your a level subjects on UCAS???
Sent my UCAS off today. Anyone know how long any of the following universities take:
Swansea
Southampton
Middlesex
Leeds
Wolverhampton
Does anybody know how to put on UCAS if you've dropped a subject? I put my AS grade down for that subject but will they assume I'm taking it on to A2? There doesn't seem to be an option for subjects dropped..

Also, for subjects that I am continuing do I need to do put the A2 results as 'pending' or just put my AS grades down?

Thank youu!

I think you put your A2 as pending then they can see what subject you have dropped.

Just put your as grade, and don't put anything for a2, pending means that you are doing the exam and the result is pending

I applied for BA geography at Royal Holloway but none of the others :smile:
Which university would you choose Nottingham Trent and Demontfort as an American student . And which accommodation is the best ?
Course: Civil Engineering
Universities: Manchester, Exeter, Nottingham, Cardiff, Birmingham
GCSE grades: 1 A*, 6A's, 4B's, 2C's
AS grades (predicted/achieved): BCCC
A2 grades (predicted/achieved): AAA
Extra curricular: National Citizenship service (does that count?)
Other: Sent my application off 4 days ago expecting 5 rejections since my AS grades probably awful compared to every other engineering applicant. But Manchester gave me an offer relatively quick which surprised me. I'm glad it was them who replied first because I want to go there the most. Now I just need to meet my AAA offer.

I think I was predicted highly because all my Unit 1 and Unit 2 grades were high. The 3rd Units on the other hand....

I hate D1 and science ISA's with a burning passion.
Just received an offer for PPE at York :biggrin: Still waiting on Warwick, St Andrews and King's...
