Letters from ucas...

Basically i have recieved nothing from ucas of yet. There was a mistake in my results, so intially i was rejected by the unis(firm+insurance) and placed into clearning. I cleared this up and on friday my ucas webby was updated telling me to send off the confirmation form. However as of yet i have recieved neither clearning info or the confirmation letter. Anybody else not heard from them yet? I rang up ucas but got rubbish from them....
Im thinking its due to the lateness of my acceptence hence they probably sent the form(s) later then most ppl who got accepted straight away.
Im worried as im going on holiday very soon (like thursday!)

Contact your school and get them to help you sort it out if UCAS are giving you grief

I did Geography - A
Biology - B
Chemistry - D (our teacher left in upper sixth, got taught by the head last min, never got taught 70% of A2 work, alot of ppl got tutors, i didnt!)
What subjects u do/uni u get into?
I wish i hadn't done chem, but at the time parents were pushing me to do dentistry! Never had any passion for it, but still got B in AS but a U like i said in that A2 module, doh! Ive always had much more intrest in subjects like buisness studies and economics(hence course choice!) but its done now and hopefully ill get my C in chem (need an E or above in the module) and then results wont be that bad.
