Exam Stress advice

Waiting for and receiving your exam results can be an anxious time.

Young minds, the UK’s leading charity fighting for children and young people’s mental health, offer advice for young people feeling anxious and nervous about your results.

Contemplating University Clearing?

Going through Clearing to get into a university isn’t always a bad thing.

People who didn’t get in to their first choice university went through Clearing and were often accepted to better universities than they originally planned.

In some cases, even those who achieved their target grades went through Clearing because they decided they wanted to go to a different university than they had initially applied for.
