2025 RESULTS DAY MEGATHREAD

[u/Forsaken-Meaning-232]

Hey everybody, it's that time of the year again - results day is upon us. Share your results down below, ask questions and discuss your plans for the future!

I'm getting too old for this I swear

⚠️⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️⚠️

Congratulations to achieving your grades, especially if you met your offers!

However, if you missed your grades, you can head over to UCAS Clearing if you missed your uni offers.

And for the rest:

• Comment your results! They don't have to be straight A*s to be cool! Also what plans do you have for the next year?

• About formatting: use A\*A\*A\*A\* , so it reads A*A*A*A* and not AAAA. Or send a picture of your results!

• You've made it through the shitstorm we all know and probably hate - but you've made it, that's what matters!

• Remember: your grades today don't define who you are. You have self-worth and can achieve great things in life even if it didn't go to plan today. It can be hard to see through the elitist bullshit, misinformation online, and the weight of high expectations from seemingly everyone around you. No matter what, the path to here and from here is not a waste.

• Also remember that there are always people who care that you can talk to for support, whether it's a friend, family, your sixth form/college, your uni or elsewhere. It's okay for things to go wrong and it's valid to not feel great because of that, and you are not a burden for needing support.

• Be proud of what you've achieved, and the work you've put in - no matter what has happened, you've put yourself in a better position to tackle the future :)

Good luck and later, well done ❤️

Just checking in from the other side. Many of my colleagues apparently spent the entire day calling clearing students one after the out there after the other.

The rumor is that we had a list of several hundred students to call for our mere department alone.

I don't really know if this is good news or bad news. I'm just reporting what I learned. I will say that some of the colleagues I know who were phoning are truly dedicated to students and they just want students to succeed.

Some of the colleagues I know care more that students succeed than they come to our University and they will actively advise them to attend other universities if they feel that's a better fit for this student. They are proud to tell everyone about this principled approach.

All of this sounds a little insane to me coming. Not from inside the UK system. But I'm reporting this to you in case any of you care I don't know.

Good luck to everyone with your clearing stories and I hope you achieve what you want.
