Well if you’re looking for an example of what can be done… I got 3 O’ grade passes at C and one H’ Grade ( Scottish A-level equivalent) at C also.
That was because I wasn’t the least bit interested in what school subjects had to offer. As soon as I left school I went straight to the local FE college and signed up for something I was interested in… making films !
After doing a very basic media studies course, I did another more advanced one, then another, then another. Whilst doing this I arranged work experience placements for myself and helped out on corporate videos and wedding shoots.
Hard work, determination and pursuing something I actually enjoyed getting out of bed for, have gotten me where I am now. Nice job, decent income, hanging out with popstars ! (well there has to be a down side lol) ! 😎
So yes, grades aren’t everything, but they do give you options I suppose.
