AS results were good, but don't know if it's enough?

Question

I got my AS results yesterday, got a b in maths, b in english and b in politics (further maths results weren't included). But I want to do maths at Manchester University, but they ask for an A in Maths and two B's if you've taken further maths. I'm going to resit a few modules. Do you think they'll accept me or just ignore my application?

Answer 1

You should definitely apply anyway, you'll never know if you don't.

You'll need to work really really hard at it next year though - I've been good at maths all my life, straight A*s through GCSE, AAB in my three AS maths exams, but when I got my A2 results yesterday, I got a B. I dropped a grade despite holding a decent A at AS level.

Maths just gets harder and harder, if you're doing the C1/2/3/4 courses like I was, C4 is 20 times harder than C1, I'm not even kidding.

so yeah, go for it, but work hard.  

Answer 2

i would appy anyway and see what happinds good luck
