Hey everyone :woo:

As results day approaches, we know many of you are feeling the pressure.

Whether you’ve set your heart on a particular university, apprenticeship, or job, not getting the grades you aim for can be a tough pill to swallow. But remember, there are always options and ways forward, even if things don’t go as planned. :h:

We want to hear from you: What will you do if you don’t get the grades you’re after? :albertein:

Are you considering a gap year to retake exams or gain work experience? Will you explore different universities or courses through Clearing? Perhaps you’re thinking of jumping straight into the workforce or looking at alternative pathways altogether.
