I messed up badly on VR and ended up with a very low score! Ave score of 653, all other sections in 700 or more.

Can't believe it! I think I panicked too much.

I am still applying JUST for the experience and hoping to find FAVOUR.......but which Uni will be ideal for a mature applicant with such a low score. I am now considering applying to 5 year courses too. I am also very REALISTIC abt my chances!

A constructive honest advice will be greatly appreciated.:)

AS grades - HELP?

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 06:29 AM PDT

I got my AS results yesterday and i did not get particularly high grade, i got:
Biology - A
Chemistry - C
Maths - B
Physics - B (Dropping this)

I was still hoping to be able to to medicine with these grades, if i could convince my teachers to predict A's and if i were to retake some modules. Is this a feasible plan?

Thank you.
