I got a call from Bristol to during my Easter holiday to say that I needed to provide them with an education psychologist report on myself by the 27th April, this is to prove that I can learn the names of drugs correctly etc. (no other uni needed one). My term started on the 20th so the earliest I could speak to the support unit at college was 7 days before the dead line, Bristol don�t work weekends so the form needed to be in on the Friday, thus sent on the Thursday. That gave me 4 days, it was impossible to obtain such a report in that time so I phoned them discussed my situation and was told that I best withdraw my application as without the report I wasn�t getting an offer (this was all three month after my interview btw). Anyway my Mum, who teaches special-needs students thought this seemed a little wrong and emailed a complaint. They e-mailed back and frankly lied outright saying if I had told them about my predicament (which I did) then they would have extended the deadline (which they didn�t offer to do at the time).
I don�t mind if they have made a mistake leaving my application to late or whatever, these things happen and that�s life. But why lie? I would like to find an answer and was wondering if anybody knows the best way to proceed from here.

Hi, i am currently doing non-science subjects and predicted AAB but i read the number of places in pre-dental courses and its very few. I have got 7 C's n 3 B's in my gcse and i wanted to apply for pre-dental. I need some advice on whether i should do my maths n english gcse again so i can apply for pre-dental or whether i should do biology n chemistry? Through which one would i have a better chance of getting into dentistry. My gcse's were very bad because of some family problems.

Thanks

I already posted this on the other forum for undergrad entry and i was given some advice. Im re-posting it here because id like to know for sure whether or not applying for post-grad courses is going to make any diff to my situation. i got a c in gcse english and for some stupid reason i didnt re-take it. Im going to be applying for 2009 entry. Im currently at leicester uni doing an undergrad in physiology and pharmacology (biological science). i no my choice of degree stops me from applying to all post-grad courses because its not a 'bio-medical' science (there's actually very little difference between my course and the bio-med courses being offered... kinda sucks) . What i needed to know is must i resit gcse english? chances are ill probably apply to two post-grad and two undergrad courses and take it from there.
if i have to resit then is it english lang or lit that i need to resit (i can remember doing both back in the day)
