A Manchester student has described her "devastation" at losing a university place due to a college blunder that meant one of her exam papers was not marked.

Manchester College failed to submit one of three maths papers to the exam board, affecting more than 20 students.

Louise Hill said her GCSE maths Grade 2 result was "worlds away" from what she expected.

The college has apologised and said it had launched an investigation.

I can empathise with that -


When our class was taking the Science (Biology) exam the teacher came in - before we'd opened our paper - apologised that we had been given a different set of questions to the subject we had been studying all year.


I had learnt how the refrigerator worked off by heart.


I've always counted it as a pass.
