I got ABB but not an A in chem instead in psy. Keep trying to get through but lines are busy and when it rings finally no one answers! How about you what did you get & what did they say?

If i have learnt anything its take what you got its better than nothing. Especially if pharmacy is what you want to do it doesn't matter if its not at your first choice. I think aston this yr gave out too many offers thinking not everyone going to meet them and now they are oversubscribed. Which leaves the likes of you and me no choice but to be rejected :frown:

Well i know i didnt get into Aston and they were my firm, they said i didnt meet the grades but i dont actually know what my grades are as im on holiday. I accepted it as my insurance gave me unconditional and i love my insurance :smile:

strange that everyone seems to be missing out on aston :confused:

Fewer places in clearing this year compared to last for Pharmacy. I believe Aston was there last year. It's my insurance incidentally (dont ask).

I just got the right grades that the university of london asked for (ABB). I was actually completely ready for failure, and I was already thinking of going through clearing and taking any course that they offered...

Ring again and check. If it's still a DEFINITE no then tell them to reject you so you can go to your insurance or release you into clearing. If it's a rejection they need to pull their finger out and update track.

i know but the lady yesterday was like im afraid we just dont have the places blah blah blah. and that even if people drop out they have already taken that into consideration.
another q is could they possibly offer a place late sept time seeing as the course does not start until oct?
