GCSE requirements missed for Uni

I want to study some business/ business economics courses at UNi's which require a grade 6 whilst I only recieved a 5, is it still worth applying?

Contact each uni first and ask them. Otherwise you might find yourself discarded immediately.

emailed a few all basically said they couldn't encourage me to apply as the business school is strict, was wondering if anybody has had any different experiences

Hey @fuzzyduck69 - I'd give the same advice that @ageshallnot has given here, that it's best to contact the universities directly. Sometimes we can be a bit flexible with entry requirements, and especially if you meet/exceed the A Level requirements, have a strong personal statement and reference to back up your application but it's not guaranteed. If you're being discouraged from applying to the ones you've spoken to I'd think carefully about how to use your 5 choices. Make sure you have insurance choices that you know will be able to consider you, rather than applying to 5 that are more uncertain.

Best of luck!!
