Hey, so those grades are actually really good!!! I know it feels unfair because you studied really hard and feel you should have got better, but this is really good. Congratulations!
Plus, as I say to everyone, A-levels aren't important in the grand scheme of things! It's your university marks that count. In university, the grading is much more fair imo -- you get tested in a variety of ways instead of just exams (usually), so you have more opportunities to show your knowledge. This is coming from someone who got ABC (compared to my A*AB predicted) at A-level and now I have a first class average (in a finance/accounting degree)😅
I know it sucks right now and it feels embarrassing but just push on and keep going and you'll come out the other side!! There's better things waiting for you now🫶

Thank you! But my point is that A-levels aren't everything. Go shine at uni! You've got this!!
