I failed my A-LEVEL English coursework, now what?

Hey guys, so I got my A-LEVEL AQA English lang & lit coursework back a few days ago, turns out I didn't do well I got 25/50. I'm not sure what grade that is, but I know it's bad. The whole coursework is 20% and my exam is 80% but I'm so worried because the least grade I want is a B but I don't know if my coursework is going to hold me down? I don't know what to do now😫😫😫

It's only 20% and it's probably an E/D

Just do well in the exam ez

In GCSE I got an F for my coursework in DT worth 25% but got a C overall so my exam saved me, I know it's not A level but same thing

If the coursework is 20 percent. If you can get an A or more in all your exam papers itll overshadow your coursework grade. Maybe not AN a* but its still possible to get An A and below just through the exams but you'll have to get more Mark's compared to others who did better on the coursework

Did this have an impact on your grade - I’m doing my coursework now and it’s awful
