Exam Results

Assalamualaikum,

just wanted to say to all those kids that didnt recieve the results they wanted, that it really isnt the end of the world.

I wanted to study medicine and as alot of people know there is alot of pressure to get the very best grades to stand a chance of getting in, and I was very worried.

I prepared for medicine all of my school life, and it turned out that I didnt get the grades i needed, gcse and Alevels. I was distraught but i turned to Allah swt and I realised that may be medicine wasnt for me, and that Allah has planned better things for me insh’Allah. And now I am off to university soon to study Biomedical Science thanks to Allah swt.

Im not good with exams and revision, at all! And I know there are alot of people who can relate to me, and for those people I would like to say that you dont need great results to have a successful life. GCSE’s and Alevels are just memory tests, you memorise a whole load of boring information and then regurgitate it all on a peice of paper in exam conditions.. now who can say that that is intelligence? intelligence is not a peice of paper with a whole load of A’s written on, there is so many me things that Allah has provided us with in order to have the successful life we all need, we just have to search for it :)

hope this helps! jazakallah khair
