Sorry but could you make this a bit more clear, as I have literally no clue what you're discussing?

If you get a PP you don't deserve to go to university.

You're better off contacting the university and asking them.

yes

Sorry, couldnt resist the joke. Contact the Uni in question and ask the admissions tutor. I am sorry to inform you that usually (depending on the course) a PP isn't a very sought after grade. Ask the uni about it, and also ask if they are planning to open up the course to clearing this year. Good luck

Also go onto UCAS to explore your options and get further advice, such as the clearing I mentioned.

Ask Southampton Solent if they would accept it, but probably clearing for you to go somewhere else.

I assumed (and I think I am right in saying) that the "PP" the OP mentions is a "Pass Pass" grade for an A level course, and if that will be able to get them into the course they want.

Edit: Sorry, my notifications a screwing up and didnt see your reply above.

Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but it is how I really feel. If you get a grade that is on part with getting two E's at A-level, then you shouldn't go to university as you are not competent enough. Universities are saturated with under achievers already.

Pass Pass is not A-level. It is BTEC

Hurt my feelings? ....err... yeah. Right. No you didnt hurt my feelings. Im confused as to why you thought that. Maybe you're projecting.

That's great to know your opinion. And what better place to air your S****y opinions than on a thread where someone is worried for their future. Well done mate, you have shown yourself to be a great person and totally not an a****le.

I appreciate that you want to be right, but I dont think it really matters or changes anything I've advised the OP to do. Thanks for your input.
