the exam boards email your results to the universities a few days before they're handed out at the schools. Normally they don't need to send any GCSE results, but I'd imagine they send those a few days earlier as well

I think they know a few weeks earlier actually, well perhaps 10 days.

They do this so that they can decide who will get in (perhaps dropped one grade).

That is why you can drop a grade and still be accepted, because they knew before you did and had time to think about it.

Its also for all sorts of logistical reasons i think.

No it isn't that long, only a handful of days, universities tend to employ lots of extra staff round this period
The point is that the universities don't want to be caught "cold" when the barrage of phone calls happen on results day
