FAQ
What does A*AB mean, and how is it compared?
A*AB means three A-levels at A*, A, B, in any subjects and in any order. The grades are sorted best first and compared position by position with each course's standard offer; where a course publishes alternatives such as "AAA or A*AB", the better one for you counts.
If my grades meet the offer, can I apply or get in?
Not necessarily. This compares grades only: many courses also require particular subjects (such as Mathematics or Chemistry) at particular grades, plus admissions tests, interviews and GCSEs. Add your three subjects in the tool above and every course is checked against its subject requirements.
Where does the data come from, and how often is it updated?
Everything comes from the 2027-entry requirements on each university's official course pages, checked one by one in October 2026. We update it each year once the universities publish the next cycle's requirements. Always confirm on the official pages.
