It does seem very ageist, doesn't it?! I was a little shocked, but they have their rules I suppose and I had to sit GAMSAT for Swansea (even though I've failed to get an interview there ).

Kiya - You might be amused to know that on first reading this I thought you were referring to GAMSAT and I was a bit stunned (and frankly jealous ) but on re-reading I was relieved to realise that you were talking about your A-level exam and you probably were a mere mortal after all

I think you'll have to get a good lawyer to fight your case. Would probably work out cheaper than resitting the GAMSAT!
