So things didnt go to plan...


Well, as the header suggests, everything didnt really go to plan. Last thursday i got my final A-level results, those bloody qualifications that ive been slaving over for 2 years. 2 years of pure hell. Unfortunately it didnt go nearly as well as id hoped.
I had originally gotten an offer from Newcastle university to do psychology providing i got three B's in my subjects Psychology, Biology and Chemistry. However, sods law proved that because id wanted to go there so badly, i wouldnt get in. I got ABC. Yes very alphabetical, but that C in chemistry completely scuppered all chances of getting into uni. I was told (annoyingly) that if it had been any other year i would have gotten in, but because this year the economic crisis has caused stupid amounts of people to apply to uni, the courses were over subscribed!
So im having to re-think my life a bit. I got into Keele uni through clearing, but after going down to their open day i decided that i really didnt want to go there. So it looks like im taking a gap year. Ive been in touch with newcastle and the admissions tutor has told me that if i do a resit in chemistry and get a B then they will give me a place. So thats what im going to do.
In the mean time im planning on starting a part-time photography course at college for a year. So its not all bad news. I should be doing a lot more artwork than i would have been otherwise :D
Was a bit of a bummer though *sigh*
BUT im keeping positive!

Oh my God. ;__; You just made me realise how much I take my spot at university for granted, I mean...the educational system in the UK is so horribly brutal.
So sorry that this has happened to you, Katrina, you've clearly been working really hard to get this far (I totally admire you for that) but it's good to hear you have a back-up plan of sorts and that you're keeping positive.

(Also, this is Jo if you've forgotten. : P)
