Its natural to be anxious but you have probably done far better than you assume, and that Uni may still accept you if you just miss your offer. Try not to worry - you can't change any of this, and endlessly worrying will just drive you nuts.

Hi @txxxxa606 ,

I'm sorry to hear you feel this way!

Firstly, it's completely normal to feel anxious about your results, but make sure not to overthink it as you cannot change the past. I'm sure you have done great and as other commenters have stated, you may still get in if you just miss the grades.

However, it could make you feel better to have a backup plan. I recommend having a list of universities you would be happy to attend and could call on results day if you need to go through clearing. Having this prepared can take away some stress from results day. Alternatively, many people decide to take a year out and improve their grades then reapply if necessary.

There are many options you can take if things don't go your way on results day, but for now just try and relax, dedicate time to your hobbies which can help you not worry about your results.

I hope this helps, please feel free to ask me any questions,
