What do you do if you fail A-Levels?

I am predicted BBB in bio, chem and maths but got DDE in my mocks. Only because the teachers had 'belief' in me I carried on. What are my options if i don't pull myself together and fail? I'm looking at degree apprenticeships and don't see any lower than CCC and don't want to go to uni if i have a realistic choice
You could look at apprenticeships that start at a level, then can work up to a degree level in them if you don't get ccc. If you do want to go to uni theres options like the open uni, which is online but has no grade requirements!
You go work at McDonalds.
Tbh most people I know who failed still got into uni through clearing to awful uni's. But a couple who want to go to Russell group uni's have re-sat their A Levels.

Retake the year if it comes to it. Check for apprenticeships too
