my a level results there are a lot of videos covering my a level results not
mine personally you know their a level
results but mine weren't straight forward for starters they wouldn't let me on the
course I had to appeal and then they made fatal mistakes that cost everyone
grades if you want to know the story of my a-level results then stick around but
if you want to just know what I got I'll put a timestamp below so you can just
click it have a seat and I'll see you in the next video so a level results so
even before I got into a levels as you might know I failed my GCSEs but I did
go on to pass them and I am planning a video on how I did get my
GCSEs so you might want to subscribe to stick around for that now I only ever
did them because I needed them to get a job I needed to GCSE maths and the GCSE
English but this College naturally sat me down at some stage said look you're
gonna have 5 gcse's why don't you do a levels with us you know
you've got some three years of education left you know just give it a go my
response was well you're not gonna let me in because your requirements for any
a levels is not just 5 gcse's there is actually a point system involved
which means I would need to have pretty much A's and B's to get my average up
and they said no that's fine that's fine you know just take your 5 gcses
grade c and above and you can do a levels great i'll think
about it the more i thought about set over the summer before my GCSE results I
thought you know what it'll be good just to give a levels a go just see
how far I get results they came and yeah got my 5 gcses I got 1b
and four C's great let's do a levels uh no what do you mean no well you've not
you've got 5 gcses well done but your points is not where we
need them to be oh yeah that's yeah I know but I thought
that myself the advisor person said it'll be fine they'll be fine wont it
no so naturally I got a bit upset I was and you know I got in touch with the
career advisor at college who said I could stay there and he says Oh log
an appeal just say I told you that and I had to support my teachers I had at
GCSE as well so I did this appeal and I took it to this manager guy
who was running the like the admissions I guess or wherever
you want to call it and I'll never forget his name and I'm gonna put on
camera but I did not like this person he literally sat there with my just
pretend these are my GCSE results and my appeal form and he literally said the
words I'll do the actions as well he literally went you're going to fail and
I was crushed and this is not like in a private room this was in the middle of
the the college library where everybody was signing on to the courses that year
and it was embarrassing it was horrible I didn't actually get a decision there
and then I had to go away I had to just leave and there was another course
that the college was doing I could go on to so I just went there it was some
to do with construction which was really not appropriate for what I wanted to do
but nonetheless the day after I did get the phone call saying look we
appealed we're happy for you to come on but there are some conditions and I
really wanted to do a level so I just accepted it the conditions where I
couldn't do a science a level and that actually included psychology and I
was really disappointed because one I got a GCSE in psychology I did it at
this College I got a gcse in biology as well but I want to do
psychology at uni thankfully they accepted that and let me do psychology I
did film studies an IT so you know accepted that I was happy I got to do a
levels I could only do three sorry that's a condition as well but i wanted to do four
a-levels I wanted to do four I was gonna drop one at the second year but
there you have it I'm now doing it and it was all going fine you know I'm going
in everyday I'm trying hard and now when it came to a level i CT there was a part
of our specification about web design building websites but apparently it
wasn't gonna come on the exam the teacher just knew it wasn't gonna come on the
exam guess what came on the exam so this was my January exam the first set of
exams in AS levels and went in there in the exam thinking websites won't come up
and they did and the results were a U I m not sure if you can see it sorry
u I got 27 out of 80
marks and nobody in that class got beyond a C some got a D which is still a
very good grade but you know a U i wanted better and you know here you are telling
me that I won't pass a level so this is why be giving incorrect information
there just to show my ability I mean for psychology for my first exam I got D
which is still a passing grade it's still good so I did have capacity at a
level this is also frustrating because I had to resit the ICT
exam along my summer exams you know my second set which made things a little
bit harder but i preserved I tried hard and these were my results for the
end of the first year of a-levels to 2B's and a D so you know I told you had
dinner in an exam IT and I got a u well I we resat that exam and got an A boom
took revision in my own hands I studied everything and I got it right
where I got a D in psychology in my first set of exams I didn't resit that exam
for my second exam in psychology I got an A which pushed my average to a B then
for film I got a d I just missed out on the C
but I took that so yes overall just in case I confused you for
AS level I've got two B's and E so moving on to second year of a
levels which is notoriously harder and it was I did find it really difficult
but then again we're on to the second mistake a teacher made so absolutely
adored this teacher I have to say it if I have to really look there she was
brilliant but like most teachers all she was trying to do for us was predict the
next paper has to be fished she probably did say revise every topic just in case
but she said the questions that came on last year's paper would definitely not
be on this year's paper and guess what happened last year's questions actually
what some of them came up on this year's paper and most of us haven't revised it
because we thought it was near impossible the same question would come up
two years in a row so to be honest we have to take some responsibility for
that because we should be move out and every subject and a teacher is just
making a prediction so in that subject I got an e so it wasn't a U but
still an e and this is second year of a levels the pressure is building up I've
only got one half year left I was panicking a little bit as you can see
what I did here there were all my calculations to what I needed to get
in my next exams to achieve a C and an E brought me down so much that
just have to get like a really high A to still get a Cso I have to
resit that psychology exam again I'm resitting based on a teachers advice and
again I'm sort of making my life harder because I've got to resit another exam
and at this time it's the end of the second year of a-levels
this is when it's all coming to a close I should be going to university if I if
all goes well in January of my second year of a-levels I also got a D in IT
was which was unfortunate I've got no one else to blame but myself
I had to be resit that one as well so have we sitting two exams alongside my
summer exams so yes second year of a-levels second part of it it was
looking really tough and it was kind of frightening because I really wanted to
go to university I know I didn't think I could actually resit another year because
I already resat my GCSEs and so I think I ran out of three years of Education
which is how it works in the UK so i was in a little bit of trouble if I didn't
actually pass to my regret I don't actually have the paper where I passed I
sent them off somewhere they never sent them back but yes my final a level
results turned out to be just so you know I was applying to university I
needed at B and two seas to get into my firm choice and I needed three C's to
get into my insurance for film studies which I got a D at as level I actually got a
B which meant I got a C got my first C fantastic next onto ICT which i
got a B at AS level so when it came on through my second year of a levels
actually got a C which got me a C overall two C's going onto psychology my
strongest subject if I was able to get a B in a subject it would have been
psychology and I just missed out by 10 marks and I got a C, three C's I've
got into my insurance choice but wait my firm actually accepted me anyway
yeah after you said well I know you didn't get the grades but we'll let you
in anyway a lot of universities do that it was fine it got to go to my
firm choice I've got my three C's and I did pass let's just go back to the beginning
of this video where the admissions manager person was like you'll not going
to pass well I did I passed quite well I think and I'm very
happy of how I achieved and are very happy with myself because I came from a
position fn failing GCSEs and now I've got three a-levels grade C and I go to
university if want to know how my journey at university went because it
didn't go smoothly either I might have failed a year then let me know in the
comments below if you'd like to see a video on that I might be
doing it anyway I'm decided yet if you've got any questions about my as a-2
a-level results need any advice leave them in the comments below social media
as always is actually going to be over here and thank you for watching this
video I hope you're a levels Gcses whatever exams results you're expecting
I hope you achieved them and I wish you
