Just in the process of applying to Uni, the course i want to do accepts a Merit from Advanced GNVQ's. These were changed to AVCEs two years ago but are now back to GNVQs. Anyone know what a merit equates to in AVCE grades? i.e AA AB CC etc

    I was under the impression AVCE's are still AVCE's & u can still do an Intermediate GNVQ but not Advanced as they are the AVCE's? I started an AVCE last year & a few of my mates have started one this year.

    I don't know the grade equivilants (sp?) but I know a Distinction is better than a Merit. :)

    I dont know whats happening with GNVQ's/AVCE's but at college they said they were changing back and at Uni's they keep referring to them as GNVQ's, but then whenever i speak to anyone they say AVCE's ?????? Its too confusing! Anyway it doesnt matter now as i just rang the Uni instead and asked them if my grades would be good enough - and they were! Thanks anyway:p
