No judgement please, just looking for advice.
So today I missed my last A2 history exam after a nervous breakdown on Saturday (I was been diagnosed with depression around two years ago and anxiety earlier this year). I had a complete nervous breakdown triggered by revision stress after a build up of family issues and bereavement (which my college knows about). I really couldn't do the exam as I was worried it could trigger another breakdown similar to Saturday night.
I have asked college to apply for special considerations for the missed exam (i.e take an average of the other exams to work out what mark I might have got) which they are happy to do, I also have a doctors note saying I couldn't do the exam because of an acute depressive episode.
However now I am worried that the request won't be accepted because they might think I could have still done the exam (as it's not a physical illness).
Does anyone have any experience/advise on this? I am targeted an A* (which I doubt I will achieve anyway) and am so worried 😩
Thanks in advance
