Have you spoken to UCL?

I have emailed them and am waiting for their response, i checked on their website and it said if i get back to them before the 31st of august then it should be fine but am worried if that depends on the course (mechanical engineering).
To clarify - have they already rejected you, or did you tell them you were getting a remark and your offer remains conditional?

My next question is the same as @artful_lounger's.

Can you call them instead of waiting for an email?

On ucas it says that they have rejected me but on their website it states that on ucas it will say that in the mean time, i was unable to call them yesterday since i cant make or recieve any calls from my phone for some reason, will call them today from a seperate phone

I think that's the key, you need to contact them ASAP to confirm you are getting the remark and want to understand about the status of your offer pending the remark outcome.

I have called them and they reassured me that i would still have my offer after the remark, thanks for the help!

i’m in the same position also for UCL (off by a mark), as far as I understand ur course isn’t on clearing so there’s no one to take your place anyway. if u submit for a remark, make it a priority one and call UCL to tell them that you will do that, call again if hopefully your grade goes up. hope to see u as UCL!

i hope you get it back on time. My daughter was 1 mark away in aqa geography and we sent it for priority remark on results day. We got it back today and amber mark went up and she can now confirm her firm. Fingers crossed
