Got a bad feeling about results day. Can someone explain to me how clearing works.I've got Portsmouth and Herts at my firm and insurance. If I don't get the 300 or 260 UCAS points respectively what will happen then? Would I only be allowed to apply for courses in clearing at those two universities if I don't get my grades or can I apply where ever? Also, what happens in cases such as accomodation if I apply to a new uni out of London and I want to move out? Aren't all the halls and sh*t taken up by now?
If you do get into portsmouth i will see u dwn there

Thing is: no it won't decide me future, but I really like Bristol and I want to go there, and I know I won't be as happy if I don't get in. It's just a psychological/emotional thing really, I'd get over it after a while but from results day up until the first week I probably won't be as happy as I could be.

there will be accommodation because there will be lots of cancellations after a-levels come out, especially at the uni's that aren't at the top of the league tables(i work in a uni accommodation office)

Not all courses need maths + you can try to reason with the uni and say you'll do a maths course while you're there or something.Got my student loan letter yesterday, do you get information about your grant separately? 'cause there was no information about any grant on my piece of paper :/ Maybe they decided to ignore the fact that I added the extra sheet to say my dad would be retired this year?
