Any course with a points-based offer of 112 or fewer is met by BBC on its own. Offers are published as a number on ucas.com, so compare 112 with the figure on the course page. Some courses ask for named grades instead of points, and a points total cannot stand in for a named grade in a named subject.
Every grade combination worth exactly this total, including two A level and single qualification routes, is on the 112 UCAS points page.
