Ucas points

Hi

I have just completed a HE diploma in Law and I am really worrying about my results incase I do not meet the requirements

I have 18 credits at merit grade, 27 credits at pass grade and 5 ungraded at pass grade

Can anybody help me with how many ucas points that adds upto? Or even how many ucas points the ungraded are each so I can work it out

Thankyou so much in advance I am so worried xx

Hi Thanks so much for getting back to me and calculating my points for me Yes I have already worked out the 67 ucas based on merits and passes I currently need 120 points for my first uni option or 112 for my second uni option so you can imagine when I seen 67 the panick set in haha! 67 to 112/120 is a huge different But I have read up and if I’m read correctly the 15 credits from the ungraded do go towards my ucas points I think the best thing for me to do is to not worry and just wait until my grades go up on ucas in next week or so Thanks again

I think that if your ungraded credits are level 3, the uni may take them into account- but not if they are level 2.

Anyway, you are right that there is nothing you can do about it right now- so it's best to wait for your firm and insurance to make their decisions! Good luck and I hope you get one of the places that you want.

Good luck with it, I have just completed an access course too. It never even occured to me the ungraded units would carry UCAS points, you learn something new every day!.

Hi

Thanks for replying

Yes I think they are worth 21 ucas points each they are level 3 grade

But yes I am feeling a lot better today I just need to be patient haha

Thanks again

Sorry to tell you but it sounds like 67 points is correct. The maximum you can get (for 45 distinctions) is 144 points.

Ungraded assignments don't count for points. It says on the ucas calculator that "a total of 45 credits must be applied for tarrif points".

Where are your choices if you don't mind me asking? Perhaps they will still accept you despite not hitting the entry, although they may offer it as a less popular combined degree which they require numbers for, or they might offer a place on a foundation year first.

You were right

i was so shocked with that that amount of points it was very low.. but on the positive side, I have been accepted and got a place to do a foundation degree in my first choice university doing the same subject so I am very happy
the foundation degree will benefit me a lot more

thanks everyone for all your kind advice x
