Should I do a higher in s6

I got my results which are AAABB which is not enough for the standard entry requirements of the course electronics and computer science which is AAAA ( Edinburgh university). Now the subjects I got As in higher are the same subjects I took in advanced higher. So should I take a fourth higher to get an offer?

If you’re doing advanced highers this year then another higher won’t be necessary (assuming your highers included all of the subjects required by the uni). I’m not sure about Edinburgh specifically but a B at advanced higher usually counts as an A at higher.
