Getting five rejections

Can I ask a question that might seem really stupid? If you don't get the grades for your firm but get the grades for your insurance, will there definitley be a place available for you on your insurance course? Thanks.

Oops, I didn't really explain my situation sorry.

I forgot to mention, I'm 21, in employment and only hold a BTEC National Diploma with grades of MPP. I haven't been in full time education since 2007, I think. Since then I have been working or doing minor, rather useless part time college courses which I wish I hadn't bothered with

Take A-Levels. Difficult, but definitely worth it if you are as determined as you say.

This is just rubbish. Most people applying for this or any other course will get at least one offer, unless they have been totally unrealistic in their choices. Relatively few people are that unwise/ill informed/unlucky.

You don't know what course it is. Trust me.

How?

I essentially got 5 rejections last year, although I was predicted A*A*A etc. I've seen it happen to other people as well...

I wish you'd say what the damn course is instead of keep going "oh its so competitive". Unless you have somewhere and I missed it. Now I just want to know.

Has anyone had this this year? I fear this is very likely to happen to me, and I would like some advice on how to cope if this happens. I know the entry requirements will probably go up next year and I won't be able to apply probably as my grades and qualifications barely meet them this year. I have thought about doing an Access course next year, but that would mean I would have to wait another two years till University atleast.

I'm just hopelessly stuck. I live in a dead end town, with no jobs or opportunties and I just want to leave and live somewhere else. Me and my parents argue non stop and I just want a fresh start somewhere else. Problem is, I'm not really qualified for anything that pays well so thus I will not be able to move out and away.

i neg repped you because I felt like it. I find your post annoying.

Ha ha! Well the OP didn't seem to want to say so I didn't either.

Suffice it to say, the uni nearest me gets over 1000 applicants for this course and has 16 places available for this year.

It's paramedic science. I wasn't trying to hide it or anything, I should've just mentioned it in the first place

Where are you applying?

If you're applying with all your options to:

1. Oxford/Cambridge
2. LSE
3. UCL
4. Imperial
5. Warwick


If you've used up all your options on those 5, and you have terrible grades, then you might be a bit stuck Otherwise, don't worry too much. You are probably, as people have suggested, just over-worrying.

ive applied to LSE, UCL, York, Cardiff and RHUL, with predicted grades A*AA and AS's AAC with 100% in my History AS and im applying for History. I've just been rejected by UCL, what are my chances for the other 4????

Chances for York, Royal Holloway and Cardiff all good, LSE variable.
