****ing bastards. It's never been a problem in the past so why start enforcing it now?

Good job I saved the full set of AQA papers to my computer. Shame we likely won't be seeing the mark schemes or examiners' reports this year.

Yes I will get my AS result this year but I think all these systems are used in UK as for us we go to the university to apply and we can apply to as many unis as we want and then if we are accepted into a bunch of them we can choose one and we use SAT tests for a better chance of admission
Wow that's cool! I'm guessing you are a prospective student from the US? You do AS and A2 (A Levels) in the US ?😱

It's quite annoying, I know.

Oh, dear! Remember, unless they come armed...:wink:
I've got a couple of questions if anyone could help me out:

First of all, as the course for one of my uni offers I rejected seems to be on the clearing list, if I missed my firm and insurance would it still be possible to call them up? and also what is the likelihood that UCAS could mess up with your results and make you miss your offers?

Sorry, didn't mean to be such a ****. Could you still post them on Reddit or something? They're not very strict about enforcing copyright

Did you ask or did he have to tell you? And does that mean people can't post the questions they remember or make unofficial mark schemes in the future?
I AM SO NERVOUS GUYS!!!
I need BBC and tbh I really don't think I've done it - I resat most of my modules last year as I got CDE and I really think I've not done it:frown:

I like how you put quotation marks around 'best'

It's true though? All the best ones go to Durham obviously, so they don't need STEP

I am so confused - when i checked the UCAS website it said that MORSE and Data science was in clearing. However when I checked the warwick website it said otherwise. So which is correct?

More than likely warwicks website will be more up to date, but since its not instant you'll only know for sure if you call them.

There'd be no point in calling them, they would have had over 4 days to decide if they still wanted you so no means no. If the grades were messed up it would be because your exam details were incorrect on your ucas application, as long as those details are correct there shouldnt be any problems. If it appears they missed a result then their qualifications team can help fix it.

He removed the links from the first post and informed me of the reason for this. I'm sure if you can remember questions from a paper and/or wish to create an unofficial mark scheme, then you're allowed to post them, since they are not copyrighted as such. I think.
