Do I have to use my lower grades on my uni application?

If exams are sat in autumn and the higher of เติมslot wallet either the Teacher Assessed Grade or the exam are allowed to be used, will the lower result have to be declared on Ucas university applications? - Rachel Jones, Tyne and Wear

Courteney Sheppard from Ucas says:

In England, exams will be held in October under normal conditions. Any student can take one of these if they were originally due to take the exam in the summer.

The university or college looking at your application will base it on the higher of the two, if you submit your application after both results have been received.

However, if you haven't received your autumn exam grades, you need to list the grade you achieved in summer, and list your autumn grade as "pending".

Ucas will then pass on the new grades once they have been received by the awarding body.

Once you have received the grades from any exams taken in October, you will then need to contact your chosen university or college.
