Why is it a bad thing if your course is in clearing? (If it's a bad thing in the first place.)

Posted from TSR Mobile
Up till midnight to find out the official clearing list so I can make a list of details about each uni I will be phoning up tomorrow as im in clearing. Hopefully it will help me be as prepared as I can be.

I think we are on the same wavelength!! :P


I honestly have been trying to distract myself with doctor who. I've watched series 1 2 and 3, and am halfway through 4. I really am not doing well :L
What time do you guys get your results? ?

Fortunately I was in the first year in the sixth form at my school, so last year I had to do no waiting, and this year no waiting either :biggrin:


Haha that is very lucky! So your year will be the first A2s going through? I bet the teachers put you under pressure so the sixth form will look good and all that :biggrin:

The course is under-subscribed for whatever reason, and then people who are nervous (most of us) start worrying that it means the course is on clearing because they had to turn down so many people.

My sister forced me to spend the morning writing down all the clearing details (phone numbers) on the front of prospectus' for about 40 universities. This probably would have been a better solution :biggrin:

Of course :L

90% of the year was a 6 day week for us (well the dedicated ones) and a lot of us never got a lunch break, we were all being worked to the bone. Fortunately my A2 classes this year were only 3 people big :L
Need to get the paper in the morning to read A-levels are getting easier and they are giving A*'s away in cornflake packets, just to cheer myself up
I got onto UCAS at 6.30am a couple of years ago when I got my results, has this changed now, everyone's talking about 8?

I think a few of us got lucky and got on the system early, it was such a nightmare all day to get onto..



GOOD LUCK TOMORROW GUYS, I'll be thinking of you all and hope you each get what you want and need :u:

I would marry that person/s. Seriously.
I'd then actually put effort into the marriage, that's how much I would love that to happen. I'd go to couples therapy, go on date nights, I'd move into a house in suburbia and have 2.5 kids if that happened.
*sigh*
Consolation cookie, anyone?

Are you hoping to have two and a half men? :biggrin:
