    What do I do if my friend misses her Uni offer?
    i want my friend to get onto her course at uni soooooo bad but she needs AAA and i don't know what to do if she doesn't get it. i am 99.9999999999% sure she will. but there is a tiny chance...

    how do i react? she will be devestated. she won't be able to apply again.

    how do i react if the worst happens and how do i keep her positive without being too OTT until results day?

    Just comfort her and tell her everything will be okay. She is still young and will have lot's of other opportunities in the future.

    i am just on edge about it because i think she has put all her hopes on it and i don't want her to not do it... and i feel like i can't be OTT YOU WILL DO IT!! even though i KNOW she will because... what if she doesn't? then she will have extra pressure of feeling like she let people down, even though she wouldn't have because she has worked so hard and everything.

    If you know she will be fine I would stop worrying about it.

    She will not want you to be worried about it either.

    she keeps telling me how worried she is which makes me worried because i know what it means to her and i keep telling her she's being stupid because she is going to get in, which she is, but she doesn't listen

    Tell her not to worry about it., and that it won#t do her any good to keep stressing over it, and then do things with her that will, hopefully, take her mind off of it.
