Argh! Can someone clarify something for me??

Hey,

I am losing my patience with England, heh. Basically, a pre-requisite of applying to medical school in many places, even as a graduate, is a B at GCSE English.

My problem lies in that I was educated in Scotland, and I have a 2 at Standard Grade English and a C at Higher. For some reason, England generally regards my Higher C as a GCSE, which shouldn't be the case, and recommend I don't apply as a result!

So can anyone enlighten me on whether this C at Higher English can be altered? I will be too busy to go back to college and do my higher English all over again...hmpf. Rant over.

email english unis and explain to them the situation and the conversion system of highers/standards to GCSEs/A Levels.

Though I can't imagine them getting it wrong...
