    same, except i'm supposed to get an A in chem and B in biology and maths. Reading is actually my insurance but i know i won't get into my firm (AAB) so Reading it is which i don't mind actually, cause i like Reading just as much as my firm

    Reading owns, i have family living there too so it makes things more comfortable.

    If i don't get my grades at all for this year, I'll apply to Reading and put it as my firm next year xD

    To peOple who have firmed ucl school of pharmacy, when you applied for accommodation has anyone been given like the halls which they will stay at? Because when I filled out the application they didn't ask me lie where I wanted to stay and I haven't been given any info on where I will stay. Just wanted to see if there are people in Tyne same position as me lol! Good luck to everyone on results day!!!! Xx

    Where is the LSOP accomodation anyway? I'm not moving out but I remember on the interview day there was a building opposite but they said it was for international students, so where does everyone else stay? Will it be UCL accomodation? Lol if so, that accommodation (UCL) is literally 2 minutes near where I live loll

    When it was still LSOP, students used to live in different intercollegiate halls which are expensive but now we get to choose between them and UCL's accommodation. The bad thing is we can't choose specific halls, they allocate them to us . You must be living in a very nice area .

    Uhh not really haha, I live down the road from the accommodation in Camden which doesn't look very pretty from the outside but the inside is probably really good. Its like a 15 minute bus ride away from UCL. The website says 10 minutes but I think it would take longer :s Depends on traffic though. I've walked past it a ton of times and I had noo idea it was an accommodation place till recently , I was like oo why are lots of students walking out of this place?? The one in 'Ramsay Hall' looks wayyy closer to the uni You wouldn't need a bus pass so I guess you'd be saving money. Which part of the UK are you from?

    From what I saw from the UCL page, the inside looks good. The only issue i'm worried about is being allocated a twin room . It means you won't have an excuse for not being there on time . Haha, I don't think I would have realised it's a student accommodation aswell. I've moved around almost every 2 years but I spent my sixth form years in cambridge. It's not that long left now before results day.

    The list doesn't get published until 16 August 2012. It says it on the UCAS website.

    GCE and Advanced Diploma results are published and the full Clearing vacancy information service starts. More about Clearing

    GCSE's aren't important as long as you get the minimum requirement or higher, A2 prediction grades matter the most. The minimum requirements vary depending on the you so search the places you are interested in. Eg: UCLSoP.

    Also, grade B or higher in GCSE Maths and English Language is required.
    I didn't take GCSE's.

    Anyone who has just completed their first year. What was it like? How did you find it? Easier or harder than you thought?

    Anyone going to Ulster?
