So I knew I hadn't done particularly well during my first year at college, I must have pulled out just about every last excuse in the book within the last few months for bits of coursework and missing homework, but I didn't think I'd do THIS badly. I took Physics, Chemistry, Computing and Maths at AS-level with little to no idea what to do as a career. Throughout the year I narrowed it down to "a branch in engineering" - that's where my AS results come into play.
I failed maths, flatout. I despise maths, it just seemed to go along well with the one thing I do love (Physics).
My AS results were: Physics - B/Chemistry - E/Computing - B/Maths - U. I didn't deserve to do any better I admit, but I've always been 'decent' academically: at GCSE I gained 3 A*'s/3 A's/4 B's and a distinction, so not too bad. However at this point I'm at a genuine halt. A fail (U) in maths automatically means I'm unable to continue it into my 2nd year at college (honestly I gave up with chemistry as I thought I'd be dropping that without doubt, another awful mistake). With no maths, as far as I'm aware I can no longer pursue ANY career in engineering, and whatever careers I could possibly touch on in physics altogether seem to be gone too.
Again, to clarify, I put in little effort - not minimal, I did actually do weeks/a couple months of revision for maths and chemistry ironically, yet I know it wasn't as much as it should've been. I'm not proud of what I got in the slightest, but there's nothing I can do now except move on and change myself for the better.
So now I ask for any help whatsoever, in the sense of career advice; Uni advice, apprenticeship advice etc. I return to college in 2 days and, without trying to sound like I should I'm over-dramatizing the situation, I have no idea what to do with my life at this point.
Thanks.
