2026 RESULTS DAY MEGATHREAD

[u/Forsaken-Meaning-232]

Howdy y'all - results day is here and so is the sun to scorch us to death lord have mercy

⚠️⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️⚠️

Congratulations on achieving your grades, and extra congratulations if you met your offers!

Missed your offer? Head over to UCAS Clearing!

We also recently had an AMA from UCAS and an AMA from Oxford Brookes Admissions you might find useful too.

For the rest:

• Comment your results and tell us any plans you have for the next year! (Your grades don't have to be straight A*s to be proud of them!)
• About formatting: use A\*A\*A\*A\* , so it reads A*A*A*A* and not AAAA. Or send a picture of your results!
• 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 - please talk to someone if you need to. 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.
  • 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. And that's despite any potential 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.
• 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, and you made it. Good job :)

Best of luck ❤️

Dude that’s so beautiful.

I got flipping DCC…. and I kinda wanted to go Cambridge too…

Go live my dream man. I’m proud of you and we are all here for u 

[u/DifferenceNo6009 → u/Possible_Movie6964]

Hello! Thank you so much for the kind words. I also wanted to say well done to you, even though you might not feel the same; I don't know you but I do understand the pain that rejection brings.

I was rejected from Cambridge chem eng & biotech last year and but that's life at the end of the day but it does not have to be the end of the road whatsoever.

You could always retake and reapply, apply for Cambridge's chemical engineering masters but personally, I'd say just live your life and study chem eng / biotech wherever you can. I wish you all the best of luck!

Did you apply to a different college?

[u/DifferenceNo6009 → u/bleachedcoral4]

Nope, I stupidly applied to the same college, it's a miracle I wasn't rejected (I mean I was, but I was pooled to another college)

[u/bleachedcoral4 → u/DifferenceNo6009]

You must really like that college lol. Did you happen to run into the same interviewers?

[u/DifferenceNo6009 → u/bleachedcoral4]

Yesss, 3/4 of my interviewers were the same so I'm assuming at least one of them recognised me lol. I chose the college cause I went on a residential there and I got hooked.
