How MMP adds up to 80 points
| Grade | UCAS points |
|---|---|
| M | 32 |
| M | 32 |
| P | 16 |
| Total for MMP | 80 |
The Extended Diploma is graded as one qualification, but each of its three letters carries the same value as the matching grade in the one-A-level-sized Extended Certificate: D* 56, D 48, M 32, P 16.
What can I do with 80 UCAS points?
Any course with a points-based offer of 80 or fewer is met by MMP 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.

MMP UCAS points questions
How many UCAS points is MMP?
MMP in a BTEC National Extended Diploma is worth 80 UCAS points: M = 32, M = 32 and P = 16. The figure comes from the UCAS Tariff tables for 2027 entry.
What A level grades equal MMP?
CDD, CCE or BDE at A level are also worth 80 points. The Extended Diploma is sized as three A levels, so the comparison is like for like.
Is MMP enough for a points-based offer?
If the offer asks for 80 UCAS points or fewer, MMP meets it on its own. Offers above 80 need a higher BTEC grade or extra qualifications such as an EPQ. Courses that name specific BTEC grades or units are a separate matter, so check the course page on ucas.com.
