Mature Applicants- A-Level grades??

[jemcat]

Hi,

I'm in my third year of a four year masters degree in chemistry and i'm considering applying to Leeds for 2005 entry medicine.

I've made definite choices on the other 3 uni's that I'm applying to but am a bit unsure about Leeds. My A-Level grades weren't fantastic (Chemistry- B, Maths- C, Biology-c and General Studies- B) so what I want to know is does anyone know if Leeds take A-level grades into account even when you have a 2:i in your first degree? And also is it true that Leeds charge quite high fees for mature students? :?

I really don't want to waste a choice on my UCAS form if it can be avoided!

Any help would be much appreciated!

Ring and speak to admissions. Ruth found them very helpful when applying as a student with disabilities. They really are an approachable med school from what we have experienced.

If you have a 2:1 then your A-level grades shouldn't matter. It certainly was a 2:1 OR AAB at A-level when I applied. But check with admissions.

There shouldn't be higher fees if you apply to your LEA for support. Although you won't get fees support (assuming your current degree is not privately funded), Leeds should then charge the regular amount ~ 1050 pounds.
