Rejected petition More universities to take students with an achieved 2 A Levels (or equivalent)
So many universities dismiss students due to not achieving the "standard" 3 A Levels. If someone is committed to go to University and broaden their knowledge on something they're passionate about, they shouldn't need other, irrelevant to their course, subjects to push up their points.
More details
It's unfair for students to miss out on a chance to go to university; it's likely to be a waste of talent. The typical 3 A Levels shouldn't be the most important thing to get students into University. Situations and circumstances vary and this needs to be considered.
