Oh, that's bad luck. Maybe it was your PS or your reference, then? :/

Yeah didnt even get an interview. got aaab at AS level (a's in maths and physics) without any resits, i thought that would be atleast worth an interview.

Seems a tad crazy seeing as I got UU at AS level and got an interview.
It must have been to do with your PS or reference, I'm afraid. You can get your reference from UCAS for a £10ish fee...
But email then :smile:

You can e-mail them and ask, but they'll only tell you something generic. Sorry to hear about it :frown:

No problem, being rejected was the worst feeling in the world even though I was kind of expecting it.
I've heard a few people on here say they've had rejections overturned for various courses and unis so good luck! =]

OMG, contact them or ask your head of year contact the director of study. I was rejected the same way early November last year, but my teacher rang them up and it turned out they thought I got B for my Chemistry--My sylabus called Chemistry B Salters.
I think u need to be really quick as it is towards the beginning of UCAS Extra soon.
Good luck
