Not even slightly, lots of people get into uni a year (or more) later in their life including myself and all bar one of my housemates. Don't even worry about it.

I'm 19 and starting university this year, after staying at college to improve/gain more grades. I have some friends who are only just starting uni, too, and one of them is 22. Your age shouldn't be an issue at all. :smile:

Hey

No it is not a problem at all.
Most of my friends did a 3rd year (either GCSE or a re-sit of A2) and they managed to get into good uni's, so don't worry at all.

For the time being i would suggest that you work hard for your GCSE's and aim high! As this is where it all begins :P
Goodluck!
