General question about UCAS points

Okay, I didn't apply to Uni this year, so I don't know how it works, but I'm applying next year. I got my grades today and I have BBC which I worked out is 280 UCAS points (Please correct me if I'm wrong)

But I also have an AS level which I didn't complete to the second year which was a C. Does that also count for UCAS points? And if so, how many? I'm sure I heard it does and counts for 40 (Half of what a C at A Level would be I assume) I just wanted to make sure :)





I'm gonna tap him like a maple tree. I'm gonna search him for some syrups. I'm gonna be having sex with him.

Check the table which'll be somewhere on the UCAS site. It'll probably tell you. If not call them up and ask?

Good luck!

If you did the 1st way, does it not make it an AS Level and therefore points worthy?

I'm pretty sure it does count as points Nic, yes, although don't kill me if I'm wrong on that one.

Yeah, a 'C' at AS contributes to 40 UCAS points, which is half of what a 'C' at A level would count as. I was sad enough to worry myself ridiculously and write a table of points and stick it on my wall...

Well done on your grades.

AS grades are half the UCAS points of a full A level

Yeah BBC is 280 points, and most unis will count 40 for the extra AS leaving you with 320 points.

Congratulations, they are brilliant results (much better than I got).



Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind.
To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse.
To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.
To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better.
