15 years ago I came to this country terrified because I couldn’t speak English. Next month I’ll be studying it (alongside Portuguese) at the @UniofOxford. #alevelresults2018 #GoingtoOxford pic.twitter.com/SBjvT8Gol6

6 years ago today I got into @sheffhallamuni through clearing. Lesson learnt, A LEVEL RESULTS DONT DETERMINE YOUR WHOLE LIFE- I’ve now graduated, got my masters and half way to becoming a solicitor. Wouldn’t change it for the world- had time of my life at SHU. #alevelresults2018

Don’t worry if your A level grades aren’t any good. I got a C and 2 Us. And I’m sitting here deciding which of my Range Rovers to use today

To the person who just called our Clearing hotline and spoke to Lydia... she's very sorry she replied 'Bye, love you!' when you said goodbye. Please don't reject your offer #embarrassingourstaff#clearing#Alevelresultsday2018 pic.twitter.com/iV2jZOHlNc

This! I went to uni through clearing, moved to London, made life-long friends, finished with the highest graded degree in my school that year, and went on to do a masters at UCL. Best of luck to everyone going through #Clearing2018https://t.co/IkGpwoPrvX
