Restarting yr12

Lately I’ve been super stressed thinking about this. I just had my yr 12 mocks and I knew I did not do very well in it which means I most definitely won’t get a good predicted grades to go to a good uni. I am really thinking to restart year 12 just to start over so I can get into a good uni in my area (because my parents can’t afford the accommodation and they don’t want to be in too much debt). So please if anyone have restart year 12 or thinking about it let me know so I know I’m not alone in this😭!! If I restart year 12 I’m scared of: what other people think, I’m gonna be too old finishing college, just missing out in general. But also the benefit: maybe gain new friends, acc locking in and have a chance to get a really good uni near my house, can raise money to pay uni.
I am sooo in denial I really don’t know what to do please anyone help me❤️ (ps. I haven’t told anyone about this I want to make my mind first and then tell my parents x)

Hey
Your not alone in this, I'm also restarting yr 12 as I didn't really like the school I was going to and I found it too stressful 😅
I think you should make the choice that feels best for you and try not to worry about what others may think of you (after all it's your life not theirs x)

Are you not allowed to resit Y12 mocks in September?

Go and talk to your Head of Sixth or similar as soon as you can.
You are stressed out and need to talk through all of this with someone who knows you and can give you some considered advice. Ping them an email and just ask 'please can I come and talk to you next week'.
