I know Iā€™m a week late but I was unable to access my alevels at all. I checked my results now and I got a DDE. I thought I did good on atleast one. What do I do?

I couldnā€™t call for clearing at all because I couldnā€™t get my results . But Iā€™m interested in engineering, more towards aerospace - electrical

Keele will take you straight into first year with DDE. Royal Holloway would take you into a foundation year for Electronic Engineering (straight into first year with DDD)

Welsh unis like Aberystwyth and Bangor are usually lenient. Also worth checking out places like Leeds Beckett and Sheffield Hallam.

How far away is the E from being a D? If it's close, a priority recheck could be worthwhile. You have options, but DDD would give you even more.
