Any advice for A-level students worrying about their results? 

Back in the day, I remember how stressful but how keen I was to know my results. These are the few steps I learnt to take to calm my nerves. 

Be ready for diverse results; look into Clearing; investigate the Clearing system while you hold out hope. This enables you to locate classes with spots open following results day. It can be comforting to have a backup plan. Think about other options: consider alternative choices like as gap years, apprenticeships, or foundation years. There's less pressure when you know what options you have. 

Self-care: eat well, sleep well, and exercise frequently. Stress is better absorbed by a body and mind in good health. To de-stress, try mindfulness activities, meditation, or deep breathing. Engage in stress-relieving activities, hobbies, or quality time with loved ones. 

Keep in mind that there are always possibilities, regardless of the result. It's not the end point of your journey; it's only one step. Take pride in all the effort you have already put in. You've come a long way! If you're feeling stressed out, talk to your loved ones, friends, or a school counsellor. Organise your results day - regardless of the outcome, choose who you'll be with and what you'll do next. Be aware of the method of getting your results — online or in person —and keep your school's or UCAS's contact information close to hand.
