I tried to get in to Reading with 3 D's and had to go to Hertfordshire instead, not that Herts wasnt a good place, just wasnt my first choice.

As others have said, ring them up and see what they say.

If you are considering Id say go, before the fees go up!

Also, dont go to your local uni, move out, live in halls, do the whole experience.

i had a D and 2 E's 2 years ago for my A levels. So i called up york university (they were/are top 10 as well) and they offered me a foundation degree. So, no harm in calling most uni's, and asking then about a foundation degree.

Fair enough. But I simply would not have been able to read politics for my degree if I had my heart set on the University of Bristol, or some such. Obviously you should aim as high as you can, but be realistic at the same time.

With those grades you can easily get into uni. I vouch for Nottingham Trent - Building Surevying is a good degree. Best 4 years of my life.

There is no point going to uni without first understanding what you want to do.

1. Find out what you want to study, what you have a passion for.

2. Ask yourself why you want a degree.
