    In short, no! Leeds only accept students with 14 A*s at least! You have no chance!

    Please read the prospectus, every year people with perfectly good GCSE results like urself as the same question! You know they're good results, we know they're good results, Leeds specify what results they want on the prospectus.........

    I'm sorry if this is harsh, but as you can see by the lack of responses; people are sick of answering this question to people with good grades such as yourself. You're obviously a bright person, you have good grades, you don't need us to tell you they're good enough, UCAS, the prospectus, your school and your common sense will do that!

    Please guys, only ask this question if your grades are actually shit......... 3 A*s and 7 As is not shit....... it's very good; that's 10 GCSEs at A grade and over and the extra 3 Bs are a bonus! Congrats on those excellent grades, chill out, apply and for the love of god, read the prospectus!

    This is aimed at all questions of this nature, not just yours in particular!

    define 'bad'.


    this is from the leeds website:

    A reasonable range of good grades including at least 6 grade Bs including English and Maths, and either Dual Science or Chemistry and Biology.

    Extenuating circumstances will be taken into account and this should be incorporated into the referee’s statement. This would include information on attending a school or college with less than 45% A* - C grades at GCSE. Further supporting information regarding extenuating circumstances (quoting the applicant’s UCAS number) should be sent directly to the Admissions Office, School of Medicine.
    If you meet the minimum requirements then you should be fine
