Sure, A* A* in Physics/ Maths and A A in Computer Science/Further Maths.
Not really sure why I got rejected and they didn't give a reason, I have 100% attendance and in general always been well behaved in school.

I would email them asking for a reason - i have heard from a few people that have been rejected and upon query they were meant to get an offer and it was just an error. Unless you wrote an absoloute shocker of a personal statement i doubt they would reject this early on, at worst you should be pooled with later applications.

I'm applying for BSc. Good luck to both of us!!

Where else have you applied? Also, I don't see many others applying for chemistry, It seems to be less popular of a subject that I thought.

I mean it's not always about grades. Still about your personal statement and extra stuff etc.

true but i did my 3 a levels last year (comp sci A* , english A, history B ) and am doing maths a level this year, because I decided i wanted to do comp sci at uni a bit too late. I emailed them and they said i *could* be put at a disadvantage for not doing it along my other a levels. So yeah i think its not worth applying lol

If that's the case maybe but you can still probably get into somewhere good anyway.

Really? I thought they were okay with resit students and you aren’t even resitting you are just doing a new a level. Plus it’s in one year so even more academically challenging

i think i phrased the question wrong or something because when i called the admissions they said they usually accept students like that. However, i emailed them as well and they said I might be at a disadvantage because i sat them across three years, so i basically got two answers. I think its because the A* predicted in maths makes it so i did sit them within three years but they said they'll assess my application anyway as i meet the entry. I mean its only one option on my ucas so I might risk it. unsure tho

I say u might as well go for it, you’ve already got ur other a levels so ur probably able to get an unconditional offer at another uni. Risk it dude

If you think it's worth the spot try it. I did the same with Edinburgh and risked not really having a safety and they gave me an offer so it may not hurt to try.

You could always apply to your other options first, see if you get an offer, and then add Warwick later (before the Jan deadline) once you've (hopefully) heard from others and know if you can afford to take the risk.
