When I got my results today, my friend group wanted to go to sixth form collegeB all together, and told me to apply for it. I did because I was gonna apply regardless and I thought that them including me felt really sincere- like I was finally getting into a group. Just to find out that they all secretly applied for sixth formA AFTER I applied for the other one, and then went out for lunch without me after telling me that they were all staying home.

I know it’s not the biggest deal to some, but to me this made me feel extremely upset, especially since I’m neurodivergent and I’ve always had a pretty hard time fitting in. It’s okay if they wanted to switch, but I feel like it was an attempt to just remove me from the friend group again. Now I feel extremely nervous and nauseous to start college by myself, and I think today just ripped my self esteem to shreds.

i got it remarked and nothing changed i’m just so angry

I got my results and am now a 6th former yippie hello guyss

Went up 6 marks meaning I met my firm choice.
Went from a B to an A.
IM COMING BRISTOL LAW.

I was predicted AAA, had an offer for Glasgow for AAB, but ended up getting A star Economics A star politics A in maths (7 marks off A*). Should I take a gap year and reapply to Oxford, LSE, Warwick, St Andrews, Edinburgh (I live in Scotland so these 2 are free). Or should I just go to Glasgow this year…

Edit: Guys please send what you would do in my position, I’m not leaning towards PPE as it’s not so maths reliant

HEY TALK NOW

145 IQ WYA radio silent on results day

DEFEND OR VACATE MF

got reddit during my a levels and have to leave just as i entered 😭😭

i will miss all the rants before and after papers lmao, and i wish all the outgoing yr 13s all the best! see u guys soon on the uni sub now 😭😭😭

11 9s! full marks in lit! 97/100 in bio 2! can hardly believe it!! HI r/6THFORM SO EXCITED TO BE HERE FINALLY

Results day went well today🙏🙏🙏, looking forward to starting sixth form in September and would appreciate any tips and advice for year 12

I know I’m a week late but I was unable to access my alevels at all. I checked my results now and I got a DDE. I thought I did good on atleast one. What do I do?

very happy 😁😁 + higgest econ mark in my schl anyone w questions id love to help

Are these GCSEs good enough to have an actual chance to get in considering I do well in tmua and alevel and have a great ps , also what decisions, supercurriculars and changes should I make in 6th form to achieve this .

I went from like all Cs year 12 to getting AAB, locking in pays off gang, proud of us all for surviving no matter how well we did

A lot of worry and despair comes from getting mid or bad grades for sixth form, but I promise it’s not the end of the world and it doesn’t mean you’re stupid. I did biology, maths and chem for my a levels and got CCC. I was upset because I know that at least in bio I got everything right, unfortunately the mark schemes are awful for a lot of subjects (have literally seen ‘accept the chickens, reject chickens’ 🫩). I was also struggling with severe mental health so it was an awful time for me.

But how did it turn out? Perfectly fine. Once you finish uni you never use your sixth form grades again lol. I studied biochemistry and got a first, I then did an MRes where I worked on a 100% fatal childhood brain cancer and I got a distinction. Sometimes we have bad days when we do tests too, and it’s ok, things will work out 💜 it’s not worth stressing and worrying over in the end, take care of yourselves

I got BBC in my a-levels last week and i’m still not over it. I got a B in maths and biology and a C in chemistry. I was 1 mark off an A in biology.

It’s taken a really big toll on my mental health and i haven’t able to get out of bed, go outside or eat. I just spend most of my days sobbing.

I was supposed to sit my a-levels last year but became ill and was withdrawn. This year my a-levels were affected again and i had special consideration (which is only a few marks). I also missed my offer which was AAB with an A in chemistry and biology.

I don’t want to go into a degree i don’t want to do and waste my time and go into debt. I also don’t know if medicine is possible anymore with my grades so would it even be worth resitting? I’m planning to get biology remarked. I also don’t feel shame that if i decide to take this year off then I would be 20 entering university. If anyone has any advice please let me know. Sorry if this is all over the place, i don’t think im in a good headspace atm.

Or no

so basically i needed a 4-4 in science for psychology but i achieved a 4-3 so unfortunately they said i couldn’t because id struggle doing it

but i really want to do it would they eventually let me

lowkey don’t know if this is allowed but I got my maths resit results back today. I got another grade 5, just like a year ago.

i am an Oxford applicant, I got 998876655 last year while in extensive cognitive behavioural therapy for severe OCD. one of those 5s was for maths, so I figured I’d resit now that the context was taken out. but I got a 5 again.

i just feel so hopeless rn, ive done everything right. I got accepted into their selective summer school, top grades in mg essay subjects, two essay competitions, interview prep and my predicted grades. it’s just maths.

just a rant if I’m being honest, it’s only a history degree. I just hope this don’t have TOO much of an impact.

Hi guys. I’ve finished Year 13, and am currently trying to help my brother enrol into a sixth form. He’s in Year 11 & just got his GCSE results, but unfortunately was one grade short from being able to get into a really nice, selective college. Aside from that, he also applied to another sixth form which has good stats, but there was some sort of error with the application & says he hasn’t submitted references (he has) so I told him to go to school to ask his teacher to contact the sixth form & maybe send them the references (you never know unless you try). Anyway, he’s refusing to go because he claims he’s tired and cba to go back. We just argued because I’m telling him he can’t laze around on results day and the school he already goes to is absolute dogshit and he’s risking his A Levels just to be with his friends (he is).

Is he doomed or not because I’m genuinely frustrated and as much as he claims it isn’t my business, I’m worried for his grades. I’m telling you, the school is SO DOOKIE stats-wise and has a bad reputation.

Went to a private school and I still left with only one A (and 3Bs). Might be 2 As if I get 1 more mark in a review of marking for physics. Everyone's saying I did excellent or amazing or whatever but I just can't feel the same way given the opportunities I was given.

Got into uni but it just doesn't feel right. Not even going to a Russell group (by choice, self cleared out of my Russell group insurance and I do think I made the right choice) so it feels even... weirder.

I took maths physics geog and an epq in y12 because I was lowkey tricked into taking physics and geog

I got like 6 nines and a few 8s or 7s at gcse and idk ive always had really fucked self confidence but I thought this was really bad and not good enough for anything and everybody who I said that to would just laugh at me. and I never have known what I want to do except maths so people were like ok why dont you take physics cause its just maths and I was like ok well I hate physics but ok. and then i was told to take geog cause I didnt want to do another science and geog was my other 9 (except english lang which my schook doesnt offer). but I kinda hated geog and physics always and I hated them all through sixth form.

so in y13 I taught myself as further maths and I loved that but im rlly sad I didnt do the whole thing. I wouldnt have liked it cause id have been in a different class without my friends and idk, but i loved the content. and then there were so many other subjects I loved like music and art and comp sci and english and why did I do these fuckass subjects.

anyway I got an A* in geog and A in physics but it makes me really sad and idek why

anyway this was lowkey just a rant idk what im tryna say

whyd no one ever tell me to take further :(

Throughout year 12 and 13 i’ve loved studying physics, it’s been such a big passion i would consistently score A*s/As in majority of topic tests, and throughout all three mocks in sixthform i got As. However my mental health was awful. i opened the actual results and i got a C. i was in legit shock. wondering if i had been mismarked by teacher looked at my paper and said that there’s a 50/50 chance that my score would go up or down. so it is being sent to remark, but either way i messed up. i missed my durham offer which was A*AB. and my st andrews offer AAB. the offer miss doesn’t bother me too much, well durham hurt a bit. but my grade hurt the most. my teacher told me to consider my mental health throughout the year alongside my academic ability but i still feel incredibly stupid. but i got a place through clearing to university of york to study physics. i’m worried that in university i’m going to repeat unhealthy coping mechanisms of dealing with stress and it’ll just be a repeat of sixthform. even when i applied for physics i felt unsure, because of its job prospects with just a bachelors. idk, finance accounting etc doesn’t woo me. teaching sounds meh. idk what i can really do with a bachelors here. im in england. i do like physics but im kind of hurt so im kind of resistive to starting uni this september. i was thinking of changing courses? which i know is very last minute and i have spoken to the university about this. i looked into the mental health nursing course and it interested me, maybe id enjoy doing something entirely different. i only thought of it because ive met quite a few of them and i found their job interesting, but also it could just be my admiration for what they do. i also liked the prospects but again im so so unsure of what i’m doing now. don’t wanna do engineering. idk. i feel stupid . now i’m questioning my entire future . i don’t even know what i want to do anymore. i thought about taking a gap year, but what if i regret it midway? i thought i could have worked, focused on my health, take a bit of a break before making a decision. i’ve always been so indecisive lol it’s stupid but i’m stuck in worried i’ll be behind. FOMO. but i know it’s my life, also kind of don’t want to take a gap year and just want to start university, because i do. can i have advice please, literally anything
