I'm hoping that all of you who are getting A or AS results today are doing ok!  When I got my results I remember feeling sick with worry, in the end my results were nothing like I had expected so all my plans went out the window!  I ended up taking a year out which I hadn't planned on, working in France then going to university a year later to study a completely different subject which I loved.

Really, although it feels so scary if your results aren't what you'd expected there are loads of other options out there.  Don't panic, get some advice and take your time in thinking about what to do next.  You can go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/onelife/your_world/school_studying/results/ for some expert help and advice.

Good luck!
