I’m so scared

Please I’m so scared; I’ve just finished my GCSEs and there are only 3 subjects I’m certain I’ve got a 9 on - I really don’t know if I will get a 9 in English language or literature or further maths since I did **** on that last paper. Everyday I wake up and I’m dreading results day and I’m constantly think of what I will get. The problem is if I don’t get 6 9s I can’t go to the sixth form I want and all my other friends will go - I’m so scared

Firstly, there are many great sixth forms you can go to without having 6 9s, even most private school sixth forms don’t expect that as their minimum grades for their courses, so 6 9s seems a tad extreme. Even then, they tend to do interviews which you can use to show that you shine (which, based on how much you care about these grades, is very clear)

Secondly, please don’t let it get to you too much, because likelihood is, you’ve done better than you think. Also results day is ages away and you can’t change your grades at this point, so just go with the flow.
I thought I’d flunked eng lit paper 1 and I ended up getting full marks.

What are you interested in doing at sixth form? :smile:
