Commiserations. I know of a few people who have got in to Hill colleges to do things like combined social sciences. The problem is I'm not sure they would ever let you change to a subject like law, which is normally over-subscribed anyway. My advice would be to get A levels and then reapply. I know of several people who have got into Oxbridge doing this, despite previous rejections. Having your grades makes it much easier for a department to make a decision since you're a known quantity.

Durham have clearing for Maths?
If that's true then i guess that eases the pressure on grades somewhat - as they are likely to be more lenient on results day.

I wouldn't necessarily assume so. As far as I can recall, from this year's results there was a note on the university website saying that there were no places in clearing for the Durham city campus and that the only courses that had places were in Stockton.

I only know one person who got in through clearing two years ago, but he's doing Computer Science, which i think isn't oversubscribed.

I think usually the only clearing places available are at Stockton but you should still have a go!
