need an advice

i messed up everything but i just want to ask if any of you knows that even if we are not doing A-level law or any other A-level can we still go to Uni to do a law degree, because i don't know why i chose to do BTEC instead of A-levels even though could do them but when i went to my college for the induction if I'm not wrong one of the teachers was like you should do BTEC instead of A-levels, it is really good and you will enjoy and what not so as i was new in the UK and i didnt knew about all this i followed what that teacher said but now im so worried will i get into uni or not

Your first mistake. NEVER LISTEN TO TEACHERS BECAUSE THEY DONT KNOW YOUR HEART ESPECIALLY COLLEGE AND SECONDARY SCHOOL.

I understand your new but this advice maybe helpful in the future.

Let me clarify you do not need a level law to get a law degree. But unfortunately if you don’t have three a levels specially science and and essay a levels most unis and the good ones require this! Now there are very rare unis like trash ones like BCU that accept btec but need one a level. Now I don’t know if u did three btecs or one a level and three btec? But I am telling you the best thing for you to do is do your btec then enrolll in the same and different college next year to do your a levels!! This is a must get aware of the LNAT for law entrance exams for uni!! Get aware of the system and TEACHERS ARE ALWAYS NOT HELPFUL.

What is ur GCSEs ?

If you have any Qs due feel free to ask!!

You don't need A level Law to do a Law degree.
If you are taking a BTEC Extended Diploma (worth 3 A levels) there are many Unis that would accept this for Law.

Some examples - just look at the 'entry requirements'
LLB (Hons) Law - University of Plymouth
LLB Law (Hons) in Law at Oxford Brookes University
Course Search Results | Birmingham City University
