Recently like many other people, I got my results from my N5 qualifications, where I got an A in history and English; as well as a B in modern studies. However, the real issue is that I got a D in biology. My teachers said that it was a pass, but for higher human biology it was nowhere near good enough. Now, I am left with the choice to either re do N5 biology or take some other crappy qualification. I really want to do another higher since I want to go to university to study international relations, but the ones that were in the same column either required me to do N5 beforehand or were utterly useless and stupid to me (for example there was music tech and media).
Today, I was sent along with many other people to our guidance base to change subjects, and as I was sat there looking at my options I have to say I was genuinely mortified.
I am a person which definitely prefers essay based subjects and I usually do quite well in them. The thing that gets me the most, is the thought of having to go through another harrowing year of biology. It genuinely makes me die inside and I would do anything to avoid it. I just feel like if I was to re do it, I would just be wasting my time just to fail again - hence why I see no point in it. (I also want to leave after I finish S5)
Can someone give me any sort of guidance? Honestly I don't even know what im asking anymore I'm just so paranoid that I've ruined everything and now I will never do the things I want to.
