BTEC level 3

Hi, I'm currently studying BTEC business level 3 extended diploma and was wondering whether or not I can go to university with only this. I am also studying another A level although I don't know whether or not I'm going to pass it so I was just wondering whether or not if Icould go to university with only the BTEC.
I think u can. U need to get distinctions and that. It dependss on the uni u wana go to...check what is required.

I am studying health ane social care level 3 and the college minimum grade is DM so i have to get above that

Aim for distinctions. Btecs can get u in2 uni but... btec level 2 wont. Hope this helped

Thanks for the reply. Currently I have achieved all distinctions and so far will be continuing to get them my college teachers have told me. How many UCAS points would that add up to if I may ask?

You can use this calculator to check what your results are worth in ucas points - https://www.ucas.com/ucas/tariff-calculator

You should also go to different uni websites to check their requirements as well so you know what to aim for because they all have their own requirements.
