Clearing

There will be lots of decent unis offering places in engineering and biological sciences as well as social sciences like law, business or history. But you need to be quick. For example, there were places on Bristol's cancer sciences in clearing last year but the places were filled up within a day or two.

There are some top unis that are not popular - e.g Lancaster. I think its a great uni with top rated departments but because the uni is in the middle of a field its not as popular as the city unis like Manchester or Sheffield. Don't discount such unis - Lancaster had places on its economics programme and its biological sciences programme last year. Obviously, for each subject, you will need the pre-requisite A levels. For economics, you will need A-level maths and for biosciences Biology and Chemistry A levels are a must.

Thank you so much for letting me know Do you know if Cardiff frequently comes up for clearing? I’ve received an offer for politics but I’m unsure if I’ll be able to meet the criteria so I’m thinking of other alternative routes I can do if I miss out on results day.
