I said to phone them and ask, I didn't know the exact requirements roooite cos im not applyin to those unis, but I know people that are and they have quite low GCSEs.

Maybe you should get a life instead of spending your evenings posting nonsense on the internet, I may have only got 1 A* but I come across a hell of a lot smarter the you on this site.

I'm not tryna tell people what to do or anythin, but I think its best that from now on we just ignore people like rubisco and dont respond to his comments.

That's precisely the problemo. You advised someone to apply somewhere where you have no idea of the entry criteria.

Peninsula would be fine, but an AAA prediction is pretty important, similarly with Newcastle.

Yesss... I got one!!!1


[lies]

Anyway I was trying to highlight how important proper research is. Through the medium of satire, and with your help, I think I conveyed quite well that if you don't check the requirements properly you could be plunging yourself into a failed application.

I have to do both. Gah!
Admittedly the Kreb's is easier. Partly because it's to do with animals rather than boring plants, partly because it is actually easier.
