Yes it's possible but when you enter the university you'll notice that you missed a lot because there are some things they'll be educating you on and it'll seem new or bizarre . But if you can catch up with the system I say big congrats.

Yes it is possible to move straight from highschool to University. Actually that's what I did . I did my final highschool exams scored really good grades and I was given a chance to choose from going to college or University where I chose University.

Yep, mate, you can go straight from Year 12 to uni in the UK—no need to stop off at "college" first like in some other countries. The whole college vs. university thing can be confusing because in the UK, "college" often means sixth form or further education, while "university" is the big leagues where you get your degree.
To get into uni, you’ll usually need A-levels, BTECs, or another Level 3 qualification. Most unis ask for at least three A-levels, and different courses have specific subject requirements (like science A-levels for medicine). If you're going the BTEC route, some universities accept them, but it depends on the course.
The magic ingredient? UCAS. You apply through UCAS, pick five unis, write a personal statement (basically selling yourself like a legend), and wait for offers. Some courses require interviews, tests, or portfolios, so check the entry requirements for your dream uni.
If your grades aren’t quite what you hoped, don’t panic—there’s Clearing, foundation years, and access courses. And if you're feeling adventurous, you could take a gap year to gain experience or reapply with better grades.
Zaroon, If you've got the right qualifications, you’re all set for uni after Year 12. If not, there are ways to get there. Either way, you’ve got options—so dream big!
