St Andrews computer science
Hello I'm a Scottish contextual applicant and would like any help if I'd stand any chance at getting an offer for computer science. I got AAABB in S5 with A in maths, predicted AAB at advanced higher for maths, computing and physics respectively. I attend a low progression school in a rural area and am a young carer. Think j had a decent ps although I don't have access to competitions so just spoke about projects for Q3.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I knew someone who was also contextual (although English, not Scottish) who got a reduced offer - I think ABB?
Note that the minimum requirements is "ABB, including A in Mathematics". I would think it rather likely you would get a contextual offer based on your circumstances.
