Finance and mathematics/ accounting

Hi I’m currently on s6 and was predicted AAAAA in highers but achieved ABCCC which I’m certain is wrong and have since appealed.
I was wondering if I would still stand a chance to apply for universities like Glasgow uni and Edinburgh uni for accounting and finance or maths considering my C was in maths, English and biology.
This year I’m taking Advanced higher maths, advanced higher accounting, higher admin, higher computing science
I am predicted an A in all of these subjects with mathematics at 100% the rest at A1 predictions.
If I maintain these predictions with a strong personal statement ( I have 6 banking work experience and 2 year volunteering) would I still stand a chance to apply for these uni considering I don’t meet s5 minimum?
I am an md40 candidate and get adjusted grades and I’m wondering if I still stand a chance of applying if I keep these high predictions and if my appeal don’t come back sucessful

I'd email. But I know glasgow are Very strict when it comes the higher grades.
You wouldn't be eligible for Edin as they want BBB by the end of S5.
I'd look at unis like Dundee, Aberdeen, heriot watt as they tend to be more lenient towards S5 grades.

Hi, this is the University of Aberdeen rep account, just replying as we were mentioned above in the thread. I know it sometimes feels like a difficult thing to do but in these circumstances I would recommend getting in contact with the universities you're interested in studying at. We are just looking for the qualifications to be achieved over two sittings and many other universities judge S5 and S6 together like this but admissions policies differ and the best way to get a clear picture of what Edinburgh and Glasgow are looking at would be to get in contact directly I'd say.
I hope this helps and all the best with your S6 studies!

Hi thanks for the reply,
Seeing as your an Aberdeen rep would it be possible if I could ask some questions?
I was considering doing the uni of Aberdeen access course in English level 6 if my appeal doesn’t get fixed and hopefully get it to an A as required. Would this count as an A in higher English for Glasgow Edinburgh strathclyde and at andrews uni?
Thanks for your time

Hi, unreleated but how do u find Adv H accounting?

It’s honestly great advanced higher, isn’t much of a step up from higher besides 1 topic called Cash flow statements. If your sitting at an A in higher, advanced higher will be a breeze

ah okay thanks, find Higher quite easy,
just another question, have u applied to any unis yet?

I applied to these
Bsc Finance and math Glasgow university
Bsc maths Glasgow uni
Bsc Math stats and finance strathclyde uni
Bsc economics and math Edinburgh
BA finance risk and investment Calidonian
I have 4A predictions this year for UCAS and have so far received unconditional from Caledonian

ah that's good
I'm predicted AAAAA and want to pursue in accounting and finance, preferably Edinburgh but apparently they don't really like to accept Scottish students

Might be useful to note Glasgow uni rank higher then Edinburgh for accounting and finance, it used to be my first choice course so I did do research into it. Edinburgh do rank higher overall but for accounting and finance Glasgow ranks higher

That is true, What is ur first choice course and uni?

Yeah thats fair,also how is Adv H maths and what did u get in it for higher
