Official AS & A2 Results Day 2016

It's not always as difficult as you think. The hard part is getting into the university, not switching between courses. Ring up and ask or drop them an email!

I was considering doing media and product design at my school and find if i can do graphic design at a different school becyase i want to do this at uni but my school doesen't offer it - what's your opinion?

I'm also worried as all my friends dropped out and are going to do apprenticeships and my media coursework got marked down so much that it's actually unbelievable!

Thanks a lot to everybody here for their help and assistance. Despite my huge sadness and gutting results of CDD, with your help and a lot of witty phone calls, I managed to secure a place for Computer Science BSc at Goldsmiths UoL! That's normally an entry requirement of ABB!Thanks guys, I finally feel a lot better, and can smile again

Congratulations! . Are you keeping everything on to A2?

Does anyone know if its 340 UMS to get an A* in AQA Geography, I got 338 and I'm considering getting it remarked for the A*

Clearing would have a lot less choice available then i m afraid.

Im torn! If I go into clearing, and choose surrey, and my remark comes back and i have the grades to go to my firm choice (southampton) will accepting surrey via clearing mean I have to go there? Or will I still be able to go to southampton if i get the last grade to the B required?

It may be worth speaking with your media teacher(s) and considering a remark because that is a dramatic drop in grades.

As for your friends dropping out and doing apprenticeships, if that is something you are interested in doing - great. If it isn't, stick to your own path. Your results are by no means bad and can always be improved upon if you're willing to resit a module/unit here or there.

By the sounds of things I would be very worth your while researching other schools to see if you can do graphic design nearby, or media and product design as an AS alongside your A2s. Also have a look at some prospective universities offering the course you are interested in and see what subjects they like/accept and see how that affects your choices.

Finally, remember that you have plenty of time to make these decisions. Don't rush and don't stress yourself out!

Im in a very similiar situation, what did you say, what did you mention to them? Im calling my uni as well.

To get an A*, you need 80% at AS, and 90% in your A2 modules. So if you're only one mark off 90% in your A2 modules, then by all means

My mate hasn't received his grades properly. Only two of his subjects show up (BB), he can see the exam results for third subject and he worked out it would also be a B overall, but his grades still only show up as BB, instead of BBB. His UCAS track hasn't updated either. It's so weird, I didn't know this could happen. He's been trying to call the university but last I heard they were just saying they couldn't help him. What can he do? I feel so sorry for him, as he probably would have gotten into his firm (ABB offer) but now places are probably filling up.
