Yeah this is exactly how I feel. Im just trying not to think about it so much, I know I'll be gutted if I don't get in though.

Same! If I don't get into Cardiff my firm, IDK what I'm going to do, don't want to leave Wales :frown: I'm hoping even if I miss ABB by a grade they'll let me in anyway because I've been working in a Pharmacy for 3 years, that's got to count for something.... right? :/

Does anyone know of someone who missed their offer for Pharmacy at UCL and still got accepted?

Pre-results day desperation is kicking in :cry2:


Nope but I know someone who got offered AAB, got ABC and still got accepted into Cardiff with no experience whatsoever which I thought was pretty strange
How do you find out which universities go into clearing for pharmacy
Also anyone who is going ljmu, have they got the admissions number

Yeah there were quite a few last year that went into clearing. I remember checking it last year and seeing Aston, UEA, Brighton, Manchester (for international students only), Huddersfield, and a few others that I can't quite remember.

When was this?! Reading stuff like this gives me hope. Out of interest was there extenuating circumstances too? I'm sure I've read cases of people getting BBB and not getting into Cardiff which is weird considering that would be equivalent.

Anyone else firmed Nottingham? Got a feeling they're not going to be lenient with the grades. D:

Chemistry went bad for me so worried I'll get a C instead of a B. :frown:
I guess we will have to wait and see but I have a feeling a lot of us pharmacy students will have been under pressure as a lot of us will have done a combination of maths/chemistry/biology, and it seems like those exams are the ones people are worrying about. D:

I know!!!
Exam boards went crazy with science this year .My psychology was ok.
I revised for chem & maths 100 billion times more than I did for psychology And they both left me questioning my existence -.-
I've firmed QUB, anyone else? :smile: seriously panicking I won't get in though! :frown:

We once again will have clearing spots available this year if you don't get either of your choices. You can register your interest here.

Yeah I've firmed Nottingham. I got that impression too. I just hope that they will be kind as I really doubt I have got the grades. I think that I may have got a C or lower in chemistry as I really messed up the chem exams this year, let alone the ISA. I am so scared right now :frown: I just want to scream really loudly for some random reason! What is your insurance?

I got the impression from the interview when they said they put all the interview scores in a list and the top ones were given an offer, bottom ones rejected and middle ones put on a waiting list. I absolutely loved Nottingham more than any university for pharmacy and don't want all this hard work to be for nothing with the interviews and all that. :frown:

I really messed up the exams and the ISA for chemistry as well - all my other exams went quite well, it was just chemistry that went awful. My insurance is Lincoln which is ABB, what about you? :smile:

I feel exactly the same. I guess there's nothing we can do about it now and what will be will be. I just love the campus and the vibe that I got from Nottingham and so want to go there. At least your insurance is slightly lower, mine is Bath which is exactly the same requirements as for Nottingham. What accommodation have you chosen at Nottingham? I wish you all the very best of luck for Thursday :smile:

Same here, I absolutely loved the vibe and all the people I met were really nice. The prospects sound good for Nottingham as well. I went to other interviews and didn't get the same vibe, I just felt like I'd fit in at Nottingham. I've chosen St Peters Court, how about you? :smile:
