University With BTEC?

I want to study A levels in September, but I am worried that my GCSE grades may not meet the entry requirements of my colleges. One of my colleges offers BTEC Travel and Tourism, while another off BTEC Business (both at level 2) as backup options.

I understand that if I achieve good grades at level 2, I can progress to level 3 in that BTEC.

So my questions are :

1) Will I possibly be rejected from universities because of bad GCSE grades even if I achieved good grades in the BTEC?

2) Which BTEC would you recommend between the two?

3) Has anyone on here gone to university after achieving good grades at BTEC despite bad gcse grades?

Thanks!

1) Will I possibly be rejected from universities because of bad GCSE grades even if I achieved good grades in the BTEC?
A- Not many universities actually do care about GCSE other than the top ones such as Oxford and Cambridge etc. Most university only require a min of C in math and English, some may want a B in math depending on the course you're going for.

2) Which BTEC would you recommend between the two?
A - Honestly both of the BTEC courses are bad. They're a dead end and will not take you into a career field If you're going uni to do either of these courses then you will just waste time and money as there are no clear career prospect for these two. I think apprenticeship is more suitable for you as you clearly don't know what you want however, at least you will earn money and learn some real world skill that are actually employable whereas in the classroom you wouldn't. And it also gives you time to think about what you really want. But I repeat don't go university to do these rubbish courses.


3) Has anyone on here gone to university after achieving good grades at BTEC despite bad gcse grades?
A- Yeah I got into computer science at Goldsiths university.
