    I'd say either call the CAO or if your school is still open then i suggest going to see yor guidance counsellor

    Unfortunately accepting the level 8 choice immeadiately deletes all other offers.

    As far as I know they take the one you accepted last as your accepted one. That's why your round two acceptance cancels out your round one one if points go down and you get a course that was higher on your list.

    But I am not sure about this and please don't take my word for it! I'd say check with CAO, a teacher or one of the helplines.

    This is not correct. You are free to swap between your level 8 and level 7/6 offers as many times as you like between now and 26 August; accepting your level 7/6 offer now will automatically cancel the level 8 offer. But whatever is in the system at 5.15 pm next Tuesday will be "locked in" as your final acceptance.

    Apologies. I was thinking about if you accept your first offer...I didn't take into account the level 6/7 side....my bad
