Any advice for adjustment at UCL?

So I’m hoping to get in to UCL through adjustment. I’ll be getting my grades this week but as far as I’m aware adjustment starts on results day. I know my course won’t be in the adjustment list as it is a popular course but I’m hoping there’s some space available. I know everyoneee will be calling up so it’ll be a really big stress and places will be going lightening fast so does anyone have any advice how to go about this?

Do I call up super super early so I’m the first one on the line??

I would call their Admissions as soon as you have confirmation of your results, but be prepared for the fact that they might not be in Adjustment this year for your course, or might want to wait until A level results day until deciding if they want to consider new applicants.

I did email them and they said they won’t be publishing their list of courses in Adjustment till results day so I don’t think i’ll be able to call before then

This page has the list of courses that UCL has had in adjustment for the past 4-5 years. They had a LOT of courses available in 2016 and 2017 but last year the list was absolutely tiny compared to the years before
