What would you do if you failed your A-levels?

Create a successful business :biggrin: easier said then done.... But hey!
I failed one of mine last year, but to be honest it was totally expected seeing as I did a grand total of about 4 hours revision for the entire of my maths A-level, you can't really bull**** your way through maths as you can with Psychology and Photography, so I knew I'd failed it and just decided to resit the exams and work. it's not the end of the world. I think if anything having to work somewhere I hate where everyone seems to be trapped in a job they hate gave me motivation which is definitely something I was lacking before.

If I were to fail, id resort to living in the basement of my parents house.
Buy an Xbox, all the call of duty games and a 52inch HD 1080p television..
Fast food shops down the street so 24/7 supply of comfort food
courtesy of my loving parents of course, by doing this I'd post videos on YouTube
about it. Eventually get famous as a commentator, and make tons of money via
YouTube sponsorships...
Sorted?

this is so depressing
Become a hunter-gatherer in the amazonian rainforest.
By the sounds of it people don't know that they can't just re-sit A2? AS levels are only valid for the year they're taken and the year following (A2 year). After that you would have to retake your whole A-Level. Probably a worthwhile piece of information.

Join the army.


Don't know why you got all the negs...

I actually would join the army i think, I'd love to try and test my discipline and see if i'm cut out for a Sniper, im great with a rifle at the gunclub, but at a living target under cirumstances that I would be greeted with at the army, i think it would be a real test of the mind...

But Sniper training is very competitive, i wouldn't mind being a medic on the frontline either

How about suicide? It is an exaggerated emotion in my opinion, but there were people who commit suicide concerning bad marks, why not?


Thanks for your suggestion but I don't believe suicide is the answer.
Suicide is an emotion?
Crying is way better, that way I can get over things:smile:
Would you commit suicide if you failed?
I'm asking because your the one who recommended it to me.

Suicide isn't an emotion. Suicide is an action
