Will a uni accept me if i failed to get C in GCSE maths

that is very lucky i wish it could only be true with me and yeah im just worried incase they reject my application due to me not getting my C as i could resit it while i was in uni

Will uni's still accept me onto
their course if i get the A level grades needed for the course but fail to get a C this ear in GCSE maths as it states on my offer i needed it but surely i could sit my
maths GCSE while i was at uni so would it be a problem or not ? any suggestions

If they have the aforementioned attitude of them just wanting your money -- then I wouldn't contact them.

If they don't have that attitude -- then I still wouldn't contact them.

You could get away with it, they might be willing to "accidentally" fail to detect that you missed your C again and just let you in anyway. Its their decision who they let in at the end of the day.

Contacting them will only draw attention to the fact that you don't have a C. If you are going to contact them to discuss it, don't give them your personal information.

I've been offered a place at Bristol Uni to do Biology, along with Glasgow for Zoology.

I have a D in maths (both of the above unis need a B, I think, in maths GCSE), but I'm predicted A*A*A in A Level - I was very fortunate to be able to take my A levels (Biology, Computer Science, and Chemistry), as the teachers were amazing, and gave me a life line.

If you can get good A Levels, GCSEs mean nothing; but that does not mean that you shouldn't do well in your GCSEs; I was very fortunate to be given the opportunity.

So, you can make things happen, even with **** GCSEs.

I'm guessing you're applying after the summer holidays by the sounds of it? Have a word with your tutor/head of year and they should give you some guidance. You could resit maths but you'll have to pay for it. It cost me about £30 to resit. It shouldn't be too much of a problem, just give them an email sometime in the summer and explain your situation?

are you suggesting that if i wasnt to contact them about it i would slip under the radar of that uni so to speak and it would go unoticed so they may end up accepting me as i rang them previously a few months ago regarding this and they were suggesting it was imperative that i got that C grade

well done they are some very good grades you have been predicted i was predicted ABB and newcastle entry grades are ABB so i wouldve thought my gcses wouldnt of mattered either but they stated it specifcally in my offer when i first got it thats why i was worried me not getting it may lead to
me being rejected by newcastle

I mean, results day is a busy time

The best thing to do may have been to ask them when you first got the offer. But now, it's probably best to wait until results day, as it could just slip under (but all anyone can give you here, is conjecture - no one here knows, take it all with a pinch of salt).

I mean, results day is a busy time

Realistically, you can't bank on it but if the university is struggling for students or has places to fill then they might well let it slip...

ahahahahaha the unis hopefully will have bigger things to deal with like clearing in your opinion would you say not to contact them then would be the best option as contacting will draw attention to my self about the situation if i was to fail maths ?

Contacting them prior to GCSE results day will invariably not help matters.

There are three possible outcomes given that you fail maths, irrespective of whether you do or do not contact them:

Outcome 1: Its A level results day and you have met the terms of your A level grades offer. The university confirms your place. You attend the university.

Outcome 2: Its A level results day and you have met the terms of your A level grades offer. The university confirms your place. GCSE results day comes along and it is discovered that you have failed to get a C in maths. The university reverses their decision to award you a place on the course.

Outcome 3: Its A level results day and you have met the terms of your A level grades offer. The university leaves you in lingo and does not make any decision until GCSE results day. When GCSE results day comes along, they discover you have failed maths and decide to decline your place.

Lets hope its outcome 1. Should outcome 2 or 3 happen, then all you can do is call them and negotiate your place and plead with them saying you will resit maths again while at uni.

Strategically timing your call should, in theory, reduce the chances of detection. Its borderline deception, but not quite. :P

If you have an unconditional it doesn't really matter but if you have been given a conditional offer as you have stated then unfortunately that just depends on your university. Just ring them up on results day and let them know your grade and ask them if they can accept you.

i will as they specifcally said that thsy wanted a C in maths so if i dont get it i will feel like they will reject my offer even if i do get my A level grades

Well you never know you might have passed your maths, have hope and let me know what happens too hehe and if you haven't passed then just ring up the university they should be fine with it. Good Luck!! Hope you pass!!
