A Level Results Day Rejection

This is the story of my terrible A Level Results Day experience, but also the story of how it worked out in the end (- and it will for you too).
I hope you got great A Level grades today, but if not, I hope seeing someone who went through the same (and can tell you it DOES get better) makes it 0.1% easier.
Thanks to Yipiyap (the gap year company I worked for myself) for sponsoring this video: Academic tutoring jobs in schools - still recruiting if you're now taking a late gap year and looking for plans (exactly like me)!

so nervous waiting for results to come out in an hour and a half 😭😭 thank you so much for the video! very helpful to know about different options available, and that things not going to plan on results day isn’t the end of the world

[@Sam.Kramer]

Absolutely :) thanks for watching

[@Tom-hp4bq]

how did you do?

I’m watching this video whilst waiting for GCSE results and I’m beyond terrified! It so refreshing to see such a genuine person on KZbin for once!👏🙌

You had a rollercoaster of a journey, Sam! I am currently waiting for unis in Ireland and Spain to get back to me and my sooner future is quite uncertain. I got 4A's and waiting on a remark to hopefully get A*AAA and have solid chances in Ireland. Either way, I am sure it will work out! Loved this one : )

[@Sam.Kramer]

I watched your video when it came out Mario and all the best with that :) whatever happens, sure it will all work out well - and can't wait to see you vlog it

[@MarioFabelo]

@@Sam.Kramer Everything will be determined by my remark which should arrive in the next few days. I will definitely vlog it! 😉

I'm waiting on my GCSE results currently but this is just inspiring

[@Sam.Kramer]

Appreciate that :)

I don’t know how many people realises, but being one of the biggest Ali Abdaal fans with big dreams, did anyone realize that Sam is lucky enough to use Ali Abaal’s video bag round?😂 Lucky Sam😅

I am actually looking at Oxford, Durham, Nottingham, and Bristol to apply to next year. Also considering Manchester and Southampton. What did you like about the Durham, Nottingham, and Bristol Classics departments when you looked into where you would apply ?

[@Sam.Kramer]

Tbh didn't look at them v closely but high enough in league rankings

[@darkacademiaaudiobooks]

@@Sam.Kramer That was the first thing I looked at too. Southampton seems like it has a very good Classics department for a somewhat lower ranked, but still highly ranked, uni.

[@MaximusRequiem]

hi sam. I cant believe how similar your story is to mine at the moment. So I'm just out of year 13. I was applying to do econ Bsc, my firm choice was birmingham for AAB and insurance was Kent for BBC. Come results day, my grades were A*BC. I kindve just reesigned to going to Kent, but then I got a phone call. My maths department rung me up to tell me that I was 2 marks of a B and that i coukd request a remark. They believe it is quite likely that I will be marked up, bringing me to A*BB. Then I rung up Birmingham, and asked if they could hold my space, as it would be the equivalent of my offer. However, they said that they were oversubscribed and that they wouldn't hold my space. So now I'm here. I'm still going to kent, but I'm not sure I want to be going there. I kinfve want to resit my Econ to get an A, which i believe I can do. I'm not sure if I want to take a gap year at the moment. Rely appreciate the video though. Thanks

[@Sam.Kramer]

Thanks for the comment :) whatever happens next, sure it will all work out :))

[@renediluyeye2175]

Similar to you, I took a gap year to wait out for my preferred uni!

[@Sam.Kramer]

Nice!
