Yay! I am not the only one who feels like that. I was starting to think I was really odd lol.

A blessing in disguise if you ask me :rolleyes:

Well I've picked my firm and insurance so that either way I'm going to uni. Just depends if it's the first choice or the second choice. :P

How do you find out if your course is in extra?

go on to UCAS, go into apply, the one wit the grey 'x' next to them are in extra.
Luckily for me no one wants to do Enlish literature and philosophy at Liverpool uni...

Born in Kent but living in South Africa for the moment so doesn't matter where I go cos it'll all be new to me anyway. Still, rather be in the south where it's somewhat warm than in the north where it's cold all the time. :p:

i actually have no back up plan. i only have a firm and that one is with my lowest graded offer as well. so if i dont get that then....well....i actually will shrivel up and die. i really cant imagine not going to central this october. everything is sorted......
i just need the grades....why are you making us panic and think of back up plans?!

everybody- it will be FINE. you will get into the uni u want to this year!!!!

Thankyou!
So, does that mean the liklihood of your subject being in clearing is greater if it's "in extra". And if that's the case, would it mean that you would more likely be accepted even if you hadn't met the grade requirements?

(Sorry about all the questions)
