Hey, if anyone could give me advice here id really appreciate it!
Basically Ive got 4 offers from the uni that I want to go to, all degrees based around biology. Problem is, 3 of them are asking them for a B in biology, and the fourth one is asking for a C. The fourth one isn't my ideal choice, plus its a four year course rather than a three year one.
SOOOO...do I pick one of the grade B choices, hope that I get the grades, and have the C grade choice as back up? Or just pick 2 of the B grade ones which Id prefer? I don't want to be in the situation on August where Ive got a C in biology, and cant get into any course!
Sorry if it was a bit long!
:rolleyes:

So I'd probably just put whichever you like most on the list.
Personally I'd choose your first choice as first choice (obvious).
Then, even assuming they all require the same points/grades another of the higher grade courses you'd want to do as second choice.
I know a fair few people who didn't make the grades their offer asked for and were still admitted onto the course. One of the institutions might be more likely to drop their grade offer than the other. If not, there are plenty of good institutions happy to take people through clearing.
Good luck with your exams.
