A level results day out office took 6851 calls...Personally I took 130 calls. I was 3rd place in the highest number of calls taken. Go Me! Nikki who my fellow blogger and is also on my Team took the highest amount of calls a whopping 158!
A level day was non-stop phone calls and where we would love to offer everyone a place it’s not necessarily possible. So if you didn’t get the grades you expected and you’re in limbo aka as clearing, first things first do some research. Our buddies and UCAS have details of all the universities offering courses. Please don’t be the person just wants a place and doesn’t care about the course.
University is not something you should undertake without careful consideration. You need to really love the subject you are going to study or it’s just going to make the next 3-4 years of your life very hard. Do you remember those dreaded history lessons (never liked history in school) when you had no motivation to do work. The same will happen if you’re taking on a degree in something you have no interest in.
So what can you do? If all else fails access courses! If you are missing those crucial GCSE’s or A Levels they are the solution! Access courses are run at local colleges and dependent on what qualifications you already have you won’t have to complete the whole thing just the bits you missing. There are access courses specific to you particular interest or general access to higher education.
So what’s keeping me going through this stressful time I hear you ask...Starbucks Chocolate Cream Frapuccino with cream on top! Me and Hannah Arnold (previously Tinson she got married in June I was lucky enough to attend her be.a.utiful wedding) visit Starbucks on our lunch break to satisfy our cravings!
By the way update on the wedding preparations ...Why do jewellery shops not stock all sizes! I don’t want to wait I want a ring now! So I’m going to order online instead. Need an engagement ring before Saturday as I have my future father-in-laws wedding to attend and everyone will want to see what’s on my finger!
Last but not least I was photographed for some online publicity stuff on the website so you can see a photo of me holding a massive sign! It’s pretty ridiculous have a look... http://www.gre.ac.uk/pr/articles/latest/a1875-clearing
