My offer from Imperial was A*AA but i got A*A*B and was rejected :frown:


Sorry about that, do you have an insurance?
Hello, I received my AS results today. Sociology A, English Lit B, History B. Yet to my surprise I got a D in creative writing, despite my teacher continuously telling me I should be aiming for a B or A. Firstly I was wondering how badly this would impact me when I'm applying to uni... (looking to go to York, UCL, Birmingham or St Andrews). Secondly would it be worth getting remarked? Hope every one got the grades wanted !!!Thanks Jo.:smile:))
sorry ahah
I got AAAB in my AS so I'm extremely happy :smile:

Well done to everyone else!

Got rejected by my firm but managed to find a great course in clearing and I've been offered a place. Been a rollercoaster of emotions today :laugh:

It's okay. Breathe because this isn't the end of the world at all. You can work with those results.



Thankyou so much for your positive comments :biggrin: yeah I guess so!

I applied for English. I don't know what I want to study now. I want to do some A levels next year.

If you're still interested in English then Goldsmiths or Birkbeck in London would both be worth contacting - they're more likely to look beyond the number of A levels and listen to your ECs

Alternatively would taking another A level (or another qualification) at college this year be an option?
I didn't know I could only add ONE clearing choice and I just randomly added one HOLY **** I'M IN DEEP ****

I've been rejected from my first choice Cambridge' they wanted A*A and I got AA. I only did 2 A2s due to severe ECs.

A English lit
A religious studies

What do I do now?


Sorry for the sad news. Do you have an insurance choice, where you will be happy to enrol? if I may ask, what is it?

I think you should start looking closely at your insurance choice. Good luck
quick question, is there an average ETA on how long it takes for the university to confirm your clearing choice? I'm assuming it's whenever the storms have died down and the phone calls stop?

Call UCAS now and ask them to cancel it for you if that wasn't your favourite
