Might have forgetten to put one of my GCSE grades

Hello, I put all my GCSE grades that I did in Year 11 but I completely forgot to put one of my grades that I got the year before in Year 10. I've already applied and some unis have offered places. Should I call UCAS to change my qualifications or is it too late to do so? Reason I'm asking is because, I'm told that UCAS requires all qualifications.

Thank you, by doing this, would this affect the existing offers that I have from universities?

It shouldn’t do but you should let them know about the addition in writing (email).

Hi, I what should I do if I stated I got merit, but actually got a distinction in my art gcse? Would I jsut do the same, or is it different, as I need to change the units i did also. I also forgot to mention a unit, so will that count as well.

GCSEs are awarded letter or number grades, not merit or distinction. So if you added a gcse with a merit grade then you probably used the wrong qualification type.

You need to fill in the form to put the mistake right

As above, check the qualification names on the actual certificates and correct any mistakes using the online form.

Sorry if i wasn't clear, I meant as in, I put it through for btech, and I put a merit when I was suppsoed to put distinction. But i mentioned that this was for GCSE grade, as in a level 2 btech, which is equivalent to a GCSE, but also, because it may seem like this was for my ALEVEL grade. So should I still fill out the form?
