TMUA-Warwick

I’m wanting to study economics and management, with my top choice atm being Warwick.
I did the TMUA but didn’t perform well, (although tbf the score distribution this year did seem a bit lower)
If I were to put my score on my UCAS application, would it be detrimental to my application?
I have strong predicted grades atm of A*AA with the A* in maths and hoping to get other predicted grades raised soon.
Thanks x

Your TMUA result will automatically be sent to those institutions for which it is a requirement, you don’t need to put it on your UCAS form.
According to the UoW website scores of 3.5 or above will qualify for a reduced offer for economics and management, scores below this will attract the standard offer.

You do not need to worry too much about the TMUA for Warwick. If you took the test, Warwick will already receive your score from the test provider, so you do not have to add it yourself on UCAS.

Warwick mainly uses TMUA for reduced offers. A higher score might help you qualify for that, but if the score is not very strong, it usually just means you would be considered for the normal offer instead. It should not harm your application if the rest of your grades and personal statement are strong.

Since you already have AAA predicted with the A in Maths, your application is still in a good position.

So if you are not happy with your score, you can simply leave it out on UCAS. Warwick will still see it automatically, and they normally focus more on your overall profile
