This is just my little self pitying thread. Also serves as a reminder to other people (and myself!) that there are people in a much worse situation.
So...i did my AS exams, they went ok not great but i was on target for CC at A2 which is what i needed. Between my AS/A2 exams i had a panic attack followed by a breakdown which ended up with me being admitted to to hospital for 2 weeks. Strictly speaking i'm still an inpatient i don't get discharged until tuesday. Anyway because of this i was unable to sit my A2 exams which my offers depend on. One of my offers accepts people with AS grades but i know i haven't got the grades i needed but i would have done had a sat my A2 exams (confusing i know). So i am now faced with the prospect of losing my offers for the second year in a row and i don't know where to turn. I'm planning to send doctors letters and the like to the universities but i'm not too hopeful. I don't know what to do right now except hope that Southampton will let me defer my place until i am able to sit my A2 exams. But i'm not hopeful.
Part of me is really depressed, its the end of the world and i know i'll have to go off and do another degree i don't really want to do in order to apply as a graduate. The other part knows that things happen for a reason. Some people have nothing to eat in the world, or would love to have a chance to study anything at any university, let alone medicine. I'm trying to tell my brain that it doesn't matter if i loose my place. I'm more than my uni places. But in truth i don't think i am.
I can't help feeling hard done by though. I've wanted to do this for so long and i don't know what i'll do if i loose my place.
