I am studying alevel maths and geography , a btec in business worth 2 alevels and AS further maths. What are my chances of getting into a top university as i am a btec student. Will i be looked down at?I got an E in physics in AS level therefore i decided to do study a btec rather than retaking the year. Btw i want to study maths at uni. Has anyone got into university to study maths with btec ?
I hope to get AAD*D* and A (AS further maths) / ABD*D* and B (AS Further maths )

A mix of A-levels and BTECs is fine in most cases.

Having 2 BTEC's instead of an A-Level will really put you at a disadvantage when applying to top Math Universities as all other candidates will 3 A-Levels and many even have a 4th in A-Level Further Maths.
Best thing to do is to email these 'top universities' and ask them yourself. They have teams dedicated to answering questions from prospective applicants.

At open days i have asked and all of the universities said it doesn't lower my chance at all as long as I have an alevel in maths. I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten into a good university with 2 alevels , 2 btecs and an AS.
