Options if I can't get into my firm or insurance university?

Hi.

I'm almost certain that I'm not going to get into either of the universities I accepted conditional offers for, since I was stupid and hardly put in time towards revision.

My parents aren't going to be happy with me, and I'm already very angry with myself.

My question is that, if this is the case on results day, that I perform badly, then what are the options available to me?

I'm aware that retaking exams next year is usually a good option for people in my situation, but this isn't something available to me. This in mind, what other suggestions are there?

Can people who do badly still get into a university through clearing? Should I attempt to get an apprenticeship? Are there other options for training? Should I just go straight to employment?

I really need advice.

Thank you in advance.

What grades do you expect to achieve in what subjects and what courses would you consider in university

Well, officially my expected grades are ABB. However, in reality, my expectation right now is that I'll receive a DDD or lower on results day. I could end up with something higher, if I'm lucky, but honestly I've already kind of dismissed that possibility in my head.

Economics and business were the subjects I was considering studying for at degree level, and I ended up applying for economics. I don't know if this is still plausible at this point, after I screwed myself over, but I like the idea of doing something within the economics-marketing-administration realm of occupations. More recently, coding has come to mind as well.

*UPDATE*

The stars really did allign for me.

Turns out my insurance choice accepted me five days ago, which I hadn't realised, so it was in effect an unconditional offer. More importantly though, my firm choice actually accepted me!

Ended up with three grades below what I was predicted which, all things considered, is alright. I'm satisfied with that. My only real concern is that I ended up with a 'D' for one of my subjects, but I suppose this won't matter too much in the grand scheme of things. I guess I just need to hope employers don't decide to put too much importance in my A-levels, and then hopefully I can move past this and learn from my poor decisions.
