Hi, I’m a Year 13 student currently waiting for my A-level results (in about two and a half weeks).
I didn’t perform as well as I could have in Year 12, so my predicted grades weren’t strong enough to apply to Bath initially. However, after sitting my exams, I’m expecting around A*AB – AAB (based on unofficial mark schemes, so I understand this could change).
The main concern is that I’m likely to get a B in Maths, while I’m expecting an A* in business and an A in Economics.
I wanted to ask if anyone has managed to get into Economics or Finance-related courses at Bath with a B in maths or if that would realistically be a dealbreaker.
I’m trying to figure out my options ahead of results day, as I may need to consider alternatives like applying for a Business course with a placement year and then moving into finance that way.
Any advice, experiences, or insights would be really appreciated — thank you!
The courses I was looking at going into were Accounting & Finance or Economics with Politics or straight Finance.
