Is it necessary to have top grades and SAT scores in order to get in? My brother has SATs of about 1200 and is hovering around 2.7 for GPA. He would absolutely love to study in the UK- does he stand a chance of being admitted anywhere? I know definitely not Oxbridge…</p>

Unfortunately he has no chance of being admitted to any good UK university. He might get in some place, like London Met, but that’s not worth the trouble. They don’t care much about GPA, but is he doing any AP classes? Typically, a decent university will want four or five, preferably at grade five.</p>
