He said: “I don’t know what sort of joke this is, I feel powerless as I had no input in this, it was just completely at the whim of my teachers and this so-called algorithm.
“It’s just unfathomably ridiculous. If I have to retake in October it’ll be very stressful because it’s been half a year since doing any learning.”
Mr Khan said he had got into his original university of choice.
