LLB at University of Liverpool

So I didnt do as well as I wanted in my A-Levels last year, I got BBB predicted AAA. I wanted to resit them for this year but my Sixth Form screwed up big time, they didnt allocate me a place for resitting and then they said I had to pay £1500 to resit three A Levels because of late fees. I got an offer from Liverpool of AAA, they didnt contextualise it despite me being eligible. After being shafted by the Sixth Form, I had no way of fulfilling the AAA requirement of my Liverpool offer. I explained my situation to Liverpool and they revoked my offer. I thought this was an odd move, my understanding is that Liverpool is in clearing every year and they allot places to people with BBB. I used the new UCAS tool to see what the usual grades are for the Law course I wanted to do and it said that they did give places to people with BBB, so idk why they are so resistant to giving me a place. Is this just a tactic to try and get high scoring candidates? Clearing opens in a few days and Im sure Liverpool will have loads of courses available. I really want to go to Liverpool, not only because its a RG but because I want to live in a northern city. Would appreciate advice, thanks.

They made their decision. Btw I go Liverpool also and do LLB there. Maybe wait a bit longer in August or smth and call then? But once your offer is revoked idk how would they give it back. But there must be a Liverpool representative on here that can answer you

I see. One thing I’ve noticed so far in my degree is that, because it’s very theory based. It’s basically very independent study. Like all of the materials that I’m gonna learn, I can already find it online on websites like studocu. So even if you don’t get Liverpool, you won’t be on any disadvantage, that’s separate if you like the city. But in terms of content, I’m sure you won’t be at any disadvantage if you go Southampton. But I’ve to admit… RG uni is RG uni.
