I dont know specifically about these courses but tens of thousands get places every year in clearing. It will depend on you being flexible where you study and possibly changing course. Some courses in the medical field are very difficult to get into and top universities dont enter clearing. I dont know enough about social work but suspect if you are flexible and meet the grades there will be vacancies early on results day.

Thanks! That’s really helpful. Yes I’m willing to be quite flexible.
My top choice is Manchester metropolitan.

If I don’t get 120 ucas (their required amount for social work). I’ll either look at other unis in clearing. Or do a foundation year in childhood studies at Manchester (if they allow it). And then choose social work there afterwards.

Universites often accept 1 or 2 grades below the offer so good luck.

Social Work at Bath is still accepting applications - you do not need to wait for Clearing - https://www.bath.ac.uk/courses/undergraduate-2023/social-work/

Sociology, Criminology and Social Policy are also still open.
