With A-Level results due out in the coming weeks, hopefully many of you will achieve everything that you're hoping for. However, we understand that for some of you, your results will fall short of your expectations and this thread is to allow you to find advice on what to do now and get support from others who understand your position.
For discussion of the remark and resit procedures, please use the dedicated threads:
I'm panicking because tbh I think I have got like CEE, possibly a U tbh and i don't know what to do next year if that's what I have My parents will be angry and I actually don't know what to tell them.. truth is I didn't revise and sat on here instead and I'm not sure whether I should resit the year and stay at school another 2 years or what!? And whether I should go to college to do that or stay at the school I'm at now But if I go to college that means waiting to January to start, or possibly next September
This is basically just a ramble of me panicking but I really don't know what would be for the best

Wait until results' day until you actually know if you've failed or not, it's no good us advising you about resitting the year or whatever if there's still a chance you haven't failed.

I am like you too, I have a uni resit exam on monday and have only done a tiny bit of revision, when I first did the exam in may I got 30%, I didn't revise enough and didn't now any of the theory
just resit the exam at the next available opportunity
I think im going to get bad AS results.. Will uni's still accept me if i get high predicted grades? what happened to those who got bad AS results and did resits?
someone tell me about their experiences..please
seriously though, if i end up getting bad AS grades, as im expecting for history and english lit because i F**** UP timing hardcore..what will i do? I want to do law at uni.. at i need AAB, ABB? :{
i want to know whether those who do get bad as results still do fine at teh end, still get to go to the unis they want by resitting? :/
Op, don't panic There's nothing you can do, so just relax for the next few days.
Yes, it is possible you have 'failed', so nobody on TSR can reassure you that you achieved As. All you can do is take notes of your mistakes and make sure that TSR isn't more important than your future revision. Apart from anything, exams are a test of your dedication to education
I know how you feel, but I'm sure many people feel the same way. I admit, I only revised the night before and a few days before aswell, but you can resit I'm sure. Calm calm calm is that I tell myself.
This is the same position im in. But ISNT RESITTING IN JANUARY AN OPTION?!
A2's demand a lot of your attention anyway + potential January Exams Getting distracted with revising AS levels is likely to decrease your overall performance for both AS & A2's Not having regular teaching over the material of your AS's is likely to affect your performance A2's build on the knowledge you learnt at AS, you didn't achieve the grades at AS how can you expect to improve at A2? The amount of money to resit numerous exams in January (around Christmas) and the possibilty of spending even more money on resits on June & July could leave you out of pocket of more than £100 Also applying for Universities off of your AS results will make it difficult to get offers from the top universities, and put your teachers under pressure to give you a good prediction grade
plus many more reasons.
Your parents will probably be mad at you for resitting the year, but in terms of longevity it makes more sense to resit the year than put yourself under that kind of pressure for A2 where you could potentially do even worse.

Ehrm, a couple of people resit in my school, first they have DDEA and then they'd resit,work hard and come out with AABC? i'd be more than happy with that.
