(For non-Brits, whatever year it is when you're 16-17)

So, I think I've done pretty shit in my AS levels, and I'm not sure if I'll be allowed to go back to Y13. But even if I did all right, I don't know if I want to continue.

Basically, I do computing, physics, chemistry and product design/ woodwork. Chemistry was a replacement for te fact I couldn't get onto history, and product because I had to pick a fourth subject and at the time it was the only one I thought I could do, because I did graphics design previously so was allowed on. But I hate both chemistry and product, so I don't want to continue either into next year.

So, this is kind of a conundrum because I want to continue physics and and computing, but I don't want to do the other two, but I hav to choose one to do (You go from four to three subjects).

Alternatively, I could resit Y12 completely, but choose four new subjects. For this, I'd probably want to do film studies, media and maybe photography- I've seen the stuff my friends get to do and they look really fun. And then I'd choose something else. But then I'm stuck in school for another year so I won't leave until I'm nineteen. Only problem is that I can't do computing then.

The third choice for me is to look more into a software development apprenticeship, which honestly sounds like the better option to me. I don't want to go to university, and I don't want to do something for two years that would ultinately lead to nothing (A levels) if I don't go. Plus, my parents seem dead set on me going to a university and are very disapproving (See: Angry) whenver I tell them I don't want to go.

And this is presuming I even pass everything, which I heavily doubt.

Anyway, does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm planning on talking to my teachers after I get my results tomorrow. But I kind of want to start thinking about it.

Also didn't know if I should have put this in serious or not.

I wouldn't. Nothing much happened, except a few conquests.
