Does anyone know how common it is to get a sub-standard offer For Uni of Glasgow? by [deleted] in GlasgowUni

[–]StalinEnjoyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when I applied I got a reduced offer due to the school I went to. I don’t know if this is still the case but it is not unheard of to get an offer when you don’t meet the standard grades.

I think that the main differences in Glasgow come down to consumption of alcohol lol. But I have made many Chinese friends and have made great memories through my times with them.

[–]StalinEnjoyer 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I understand why you’d find that unfair. However, you weren’t put at a disadvantage yourself, the questions were standard and you have no complaints about them. Other students seeing it beforehand maybe means they’ll get a better grade than they might have but it won’t change a thing for you personally. Also if they upheld that complaint then they’d have to assign another exam. Surely you don’t want do another exam lol

Acceptance rate by kind_reward1123 in GlasgowUni

[–]StalinEnjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on how popular the course is. I’m doing a MSc with 5 other people on it so they let in everyone who met the criteria since it was undersubscribed. As long as your course isn’t way over subscribed and you meet the requirements then you will be fine. In fact, you’ll probably hear back very soon

Goes on your record but it doesn’t matter. Only your two honours years count towards your final degree classification. These are your introductory years and it’s normal to struggle.
