University Conditional Offers

For Queens University or any university in general if say their requirements are AAB/A*BB for a course and at AS someone achieves AAD but the A is achieved in a major subject that the university wants and the D will be resat to get to an A. How does that affect receiving a conditional offer if you specify you are resitting 2 of the units to get to an A

What nation is this based off? In England it wouldn't really matter, they'd be more concerned about your full A'level grade results.

Most Unis will ignore AS levels as the majority of exam boards no longer offer them, and they will assess your application based on whatever your school enters as your 'predicted grades' - do you know how your school decides on these?

Most English universities care more about predicted A levels than AS results. An AS levels retake in the same year as taking A levels (2 years after GCSE) is not consider a retake by most English university.
