So these are the details - I've known my boyfriend since I was seven (obviously we were dumb kiddish friends then) and had been dating him from age 14 till 16. In the May of my GCSE year, he (he was 18) he passed away due to underage drug addiction and a subsequent overdose. It was quite a big tragedy for his school, and for me, hence, my academics suffered. I had taken 10 IGCSE subjects, and predicted 9A (the 10th subject was as a private candidate), but due to this I only managed to receive 5A (2A* in English and English Lit, 3As), 4Bs and one D.
I've taken a gap year to shake it off and am now approaching my AS Levels. I'm doing well in sixth form, and am predicted AAAA.
I don't want to get into Oxford, but a decent uni, but I'm a little worried because of the GCSE. My referee said she could write the circumstances, but I'm not sure if such a small problem could be considered as extenuating circumstances.
Thoughts?
Put the internet to work for you.
