    I got my results today and am so devastated, spent most of the morning crying... I got 400 when I need 515 (minimum) I worked so hard and came down grades from my mocks :( I'm going to appeal 3 of my grades but I don't know what I'm going to do come september. I can repeat, which is my main option atm but I'm just wondering if there are any plcs out there relating to optometry? or any back doors into optometry? Thanks :D

    There's allllways more than one way into your course. Don't beat yourself up about it. It's not the end of the world. :)

    Or you could do a general science degree and then transfer into optometry. I know people who became physiotherapists that way. You might have to go to the UK for this though once you have your science degree here
