Hi I have been depressed for a week now, reason is that I was not able to get in to any top 20 uni . I have resit but i guess I wasn't good enough to get the right grade I did try very hard. I do have place at a decent uni but its not very highly ranked. I had some personal issues which did affect me a little but I was in the right path and got offer from a top uni, It just in one subject i had 2 grade low.
I really wanted move out to uni and have that uni life but the uni i'm going is kinda close to my house so it doesn't make sense for me to move out. also now I have take a bus or a train to get there which i really don't want to. My family are very supportive as they know the struggle I have faced in my education and they are happy with my result.
All my relatives have asked me which uni I'm going and I told them I'm going this top uni and now I don't know how tell them I'm not going to this uni or moving out to uni. all my relatives their very academic and I'm afraid they might think different of me. I already took a year out and resit my exams and now my only choice is to go to this uni which ranked like 40 or something.
I'm very depressed and don't really feel like getting ready for uni.
I guess I'm posting this for some advice and see if there anyone in the same position.
If you have read all this Thank you.
