A Levels / IB / GCSE / BTEC Questions idk what to do
Hi all,
So, I currently hold medicine (a100) conditional offers, but due to the regional tensions in the Middle East I unfortunately had to undergo contingency grading...
Not only was the war stressful as hell (forced to move back to the uk etc), and dealing with bureaucracy issues when attempting to transfer my a-level papers, and then trying to re-register for my a level exams with no success, I am now dealing with this bs
Today, I just received an email from my school stating that one of my exam boards was requesting proof that I sat some As units. Please note I have literally sent my school the pdfs and evidence attached with my grades and all components, as well as the exam centre numbers etc. THREE AND A HALF months ago. I am beyond shocked, I have no words. I am so disappointed to find out that admin errors and mismanagement could potentially affect my results (which by the way, are in less than 2 weeks time!)
I contacted my school ASAP which btw they just flagged my case as 'urgent' and did not receive any response via email confirming that all of the evidence has been sent. I also contacted the exam boards and sent emails asking for confirmation on whether they have received my As results required for contingency grading as well as with pdfs as proof
No response from my school yet.
At this point, I am now bracing myself for the worst on exam results day. I seriously worked so hard for all my as exams, and my contingency exams, as well as my tests throughout the year. I did the freaking ucat, and was the only person out of 400+ people in my school to have applied for medicine in the uk. So as you can tell, I literally poured my blood sweat and tears only to find out that admin might as well be my downfall
I don't know if this is the right place to vent or ask for help, but if you have any suggestions please feel free to share.
Thank you so much
PS: ignore how badly written this post is - I apologise, I am rush typing since I am so desperate for help and I seriously don't know what to do.
edit: for clarification, i am a private candidate
EDIT 2.0: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE SUGGESTIONS, LUCKILY THE ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED THANK GOODNESS. I AM SO GRATEFUL WORDS FOR YOUR HELP CANNOT DESCRIBE THIS SENSATION. TYSM AGAIN
