I've just received an offer from Selwyn College Cambridge to study History and French, and whilst I couldn't be happier I've been struggling recently with a lot of anxiety about whether I can meet the conditions. It's A*AA, and although I was predicted A* throughout year 12 this was based on old AS papers and mocks cobbled together from random bits of specimen material- for all three of my subjects I'll be taking the new linear A-level.
Now I've just started receiving the results of my January mock exams, which used full specimen papers for the new A-levels- so, naturally, tricky stuff. Receiving a disappointing result for French reading and listening (79/100, no grade yet) has only added to my worries- I can't stop obsessing over the "what if"s and questioning whether I even deserve my offer from Cambridge. Does anyone have any conciliatory words to offer? It's taking over my life- I'm struggling with sleep and my parents are worried.
