I'd love to buy you. However, your reason for wanting to sell yourself is too sad for me to do so. There's still three more to go and even if you don't make them you can always apply for clearing on results day as long as you work hard! It may be too late to change things with your application but there are still other things that you can do to improve your future!

What course did you apply for?

It's far too soon to say this. Just be patient.

Fingers crossed! I’m wanting to study forensic psychology.
I’m not getting in because I’ve done an apprenticeship (level 3) and universities don’t really value them. I took a long shot and applied anyway because it should be an equivalent to 3 a levels, and I worked hard for three years studying on it, but it just aint enough.
Does it say that the universities you applied to defeinitely accept the apprenticeship? If they do, then there really shouldn't be a problem. You should contact the unis if all of your options are rejected.

I contacted them beforehand because I didn’t want to waste my time applying if there was no chance and they said they “like to consider every application on an individual basis, taking into account your entire profile, including your qualifications, experience and enthusiasm for study” so I thought i’d give it a go. I’ve asked one what I could do to maybe be able to get in next year 😐

Fun update, 4 rejections in now. Just waiting on Kent and it’s not looking good folks. Planning on living in the mountains with a herd of goats who can’t reject me in any language I understand.

You have UCAS extra + Clearing too, try to stay focused and smash your exams

The rejections were bound to happen as you could see it coming yourself what qualifications did you get from your apprenticeship? I wouldn't give up though apply for lower ranked universities as their entry requirements tend to be lower.
im actually helping tho

It’s a level 3 btec, but the way they give credits is different to btecs so it looks like it’s worth less. I’m going to apply for extra, just not sure which Uni’s might accept me. Back to the drawing board!
Good luck, there is always clearing this year if it doesn't go according to plan. Have you considered trying a foundation year?

Don’t panic people , there was a time I was sitting on 5 rejections and now I am a postgrad @ a Russell group. 5 rejections does not mean an immediate route into the sex slave industry. Have faith but don’t fret , there’s plenty of options out here ! Good luck x

We're on an internet forum and the beg thinks that shortening words means Ive got bad grammar lol

Anyway just follow up on my advice, UCAS extra costs money though

BTEC Level 3 Extended diploma? Some universities prefer straight A-levels also if you didn't get Distinctions then I would imagine you having a hard time securing anything. I did a BTEC and got in so you should be able to as well. All depends on the course/university.
