Nope, sent off on 13th October, and now UCAS Track is being updated till Monday so you can't log on until then.
Applied for Physics with/and Astrophysics at these unis:

Birmingham
Manchester
Edinburgh
Cardiff
York

Predicted A*AA

Has anyone got any offers from these ones?

My UCAS form was sent to the unis today so how long do you think I will have to wait before responses?

I've got 3 AAA unis
1 AAB
1 ABB
So I feel slightly more relaxed than you guys, I imagine...

Will be interesting to see if the offers match their official requirements

Thank you!
Cardiff will probably be my back up. When I visited the uni I didn't really have time to see the city, what's it like?

Medium sized city
Really well balanced as it's not too busy but it's busy enough to make you feel like you're somewhere bustling and central
Has everything you'd want in a city; crazy night life, tons of restaurants, and the main shopping centre is quite new and so is great to go shopping or out to town with friends
And Cardiff Bay is what makes it special I suppose, great area to have a day out and relax with friends
One negative is big bands often don't come to Cardiff so if you're into that you might have to travel a bit
