My Grades

College Search & Lists
1

<p>I go to a school which uses the British System, If anyone is familiar with it we study in school however our exams our conducted through external boards I.E our school reports are not our official school reports.
In my school what they choose to do is say how i would do if i took the end-of-year external exam in my inter term reports. Obviously because i havent finished the courses my grades arent great its only December (3 As 1B 3C 1D). However when i did my external exams my grades were much better (4 A* 3 A 3 B) as i had finished learning the course.</p>

<p>Will I be able to explain this to the university or is there no hope for me. Please reply am reallly worried and may speak to my school when applying but would like some advice.</p>
