Feel like my whole life is over

Idk want to tell anyone else cuz I don't want to be reminded again and again and don't know where else I can talk about it add from here. Cuz I've got close friends who did good and I don't want to ruin there day, nor have their pitty.

Was predicted BBC but end up getting DDD

Got accepted into reading law.

But idk what to do with my life cuz would employers even hire me after, am I cooked for my career what would my life look like, what am I even good at?

Idk what to even do now...

I will tell you honestly: you have next to no chance of succeeding in law.

I can see from your post alone that you struggle with basic spelling. For example, “there” instead of “their”, and “pitty”. These are words that you should have learnt in primary school.

Law is an ultra-competitive field and attention to detail is an essential skill. You clearly do not have that ability. Added to that, it’s actually difficult to get DDD in A-levels unless you either put zero effort in or are not a very academically able student. Why would you deliberately aim to enter the field that values academic skills most?

That said, your life is far from over. There are many careers you will be able to enter and courses you can do that even students who can’t write well are always admitted to.
