Some of this information comes thanks to the Daily Telegraph education section and most from my own personal experience, (I went to university when I was 45 so it was a bit different for me but gives me fairly recent experience), and that of many students I have seen off to University as a sixth form tutor.
1. You didn't get your place confirmed or get in through clearing, if you didn't, my commiserations, but all is not lost, you can try again next year BUT make sure you make your entry in good time as you will be doing it on your own most likely without a pushy Tutor telling you to get on with it.
2. If you have problems or questions go back to your school, despite having left the previous year they will still remember you and should be able to help or advise. Old tutors and teachers are usually very helpful and a good future source of references and such in the future if you keep in touch once in a while. Facebook and the like are good for this. I still keep in distant touch with many ex-students some of which as approaching 30 now!
