Applying to KAIST early from Palestine confused about A-Level conditional offer rules
Hey, I’m a Palestinian student planning to apply early to KAIST and I’ve got a question about conditional offers.
I’ve seen some posts here that suggest people know a lot about KAIST admissions, so I’m hoping someone can clarify this.
In Palestine, we take A-Levels, and I’ve already completed Arabic A-Level and got an A.
Now I’m a bit confused about how this works when applying.
Let’s say I apply to KAIST and tell them I currently have:
1 A (already achieved)
4 more A-Levels predicted at A*
I also saw a document somewhere saying that if you have 4 or more A* predicted grades, the final offer conditions might be capped in a way that you can only drop to a maximum of 2 A’s in the final results.
So my question is basically:
Does that mean submitting 5 subjects with very high predicted grades could actually hurt me?
Like would KAIST then expect something like “you can only get 1 A in your other 4 subjects” or enforce stricter conditions because of over-prediction?
Or am I misunderstanding how conditional offers work for KAIST international applicants?
Would appreciate any clarification from anyone who’s been through this or knows how it works.
