Moving to a Grammer school and coping?

    I dunno' if I will ever be able to make that transition... I mean theres a girl there in the same year as me now, and at GCSE she got the same grades as my genius friend Neethu (9 A*'s). I cannot compeat with that... I mean... I will be an outcast, I'll have the lowest grades in the year at GCSE.... And I would have to give up my friends, teachers I trust, school I know. How can anyone ask themselves that question?


    Do you want to go to a grammer school to get the subjects you need now?


    If you had've asked me that during the summer I would've said yes, most definatly... but now I am so scared... I mean... what if I fail? What if I don't make friends? (As I don't easily when I dunno' them and I am not in a comfortable place. And it took me untill half way through third year to find my true friends... and untill half way through fifth year to gain all the amazing guys I cannot live without!) What if I struggle to cope with "No 60-70% isn't good enough"? What if I go there and I cannot learn to trust my teachers? (Afterall it took me three years before I trusted my own form tutor.)What if? What if? What...if?

    And every time I think of not coming back to my own... I well up in hysterical tears... =/
     

    This is all for me to take A-level Mathematics and Physics together because my own school doesn't do physics, and I have been advised to take both together as they go hand in hand. So... should I move or not?

    Advice?

    hey stop panicking!! just chill.

    i can see you're thinking long and hard about it but if its gonna help you in the future then its probably for the best. I'm sure everyone will be welcoming to you - we all know how hard it is to move schools! and i'm sure you'll find some good friends. just be brave and try and meet some nice people at first to hang out with then you will get to know more and more people and you'll find some good friends.

    As for getting the grades... you might just need to work hard for them. nearly anything can be acheived if you work hard. and if you have to work a little harder now to make sure that you are able to get the job and do what you want to when your older, well then its worth it isn't it?

    and anyway, the school probably wouldn't take you if they didn't think you were good enough right? and if not then there will be a broad range of abilities so you'll be fine.

    deep breath, smile, you can do this!!

    hope this helps, i'm here to talk, emz xxxx
