|---|---|
| C | 32 |
| C | 32 |

| Total for CCE | 80 |
Each A level grade step is worth 8 points, from 16 for an E up to 56 for an A*. Order never matters: the total is the same whichever subject earns which grade.
What can I do with 80 UCAS points?
Any course with a points-based offer of 80 or fewer is met by CCE on its own. Offers are published as a number on ucas.com, so compare 80 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 80 UCAS points page.
