UCAS points

[da_mic_1530]

hey just a quick question for uni students please

There is a lot of confusion over AS levels dropped last year

I understand the points tariff for A levels, i.e C = 80 points

Will i get any points for the AS level i got last year? but dropped this year.

Also is OCR General Studies classed as an A level in the points tariff?

Ive tried googling, cheers

i found that, but as you can see from the selections i cant tell what OCR general studies would be classed as.

+ it doesnt help do i get last years AS level points, as i think that assumes you did an AS level with your A levels if you get what i mean

cheers 4 the help so far, just to give you a clearer idea

ive applied for uni, the offer states 160 ucas points, INC general studies

Last year (my as year) i did

AS business
AS design
AS computing
AS ICT

This year im doing

A2 Busines
A2 Design
A2 ICT
do i get the 30 points AS Computing, from last year?

Or should i ring the uni

its a new course, only 4 places do it, northumbria asked 3 A's for it, Leeds Met want 3 D's, im not very clever and 3 D's is just atainable, i just want 2 go to uni, as im not ready for a full time job yet. I think the course looks and sounds good

Cheers Haly, them 30 points will help me out no end come results time, as i said, im not very clever and actually think il struggle to get 160 points

If you give up an A level and only do 3, does it damage your chances of getting into a good UNI?

my college made us drop 1 AS, then continue 3 AS to make them into A levels
