York University

I would like to go to York University to do history however unfortunately due to Grade boundaries being very high this year(2023) I was disappointed with A Level results with a B and a C. With the requirements being A,A,A I was wondering how I could get into York University in 2024. I am currently doing A Level Biology and an EPQ.

What grades did you get in all 3 A levels? If you live in a deprived area you could request a contextual offer. Alternatively you could do resists or even do another A level. If all else fails I would consider applying for other universities and going into clearing for York next year as they may have History available.

I only done two A Levels this year. And I am doing biology A Level and an EPQ this year. As I am a Y14 in college. As my results in biology were not as good. So I had to stay an extra year.

What is a contextual offer as I am from a deprived area?

Thank you so much as I really I did work hard for my A Levels. It's just a shame that I didn't get the results I wanted. For my History I wanted an A but got a B. As for the entire Y12 and Half of Y13 I kept getting C's and then finally I got a B in my last mock. And then for my main exam I got a B so I haven't gotten worst. And then for my English I predicted a C and got a C in my last exam so hopefully they will allow me in
