    Well I dont know what either of those are...i know sats, gcse's and A levels (uk) and I done rubbish in all of the above (im 19)...and I've not really done much with myself since leaving school except work in retail. Though I'm not entirely worried because I can re-do my GCSE's at university, or get an apprenticeship hakuna matata!

    Not knowing your school system I can't comment specifically. Are you required to have this to go on for more education such as university? Failing at school can close some doors, how serious this is depends on where you are and what you want to do in the future.
    Can you get some tutoring help? Is there a teacher you can ask?

    I suppose it can be like any school system. I mean if you totally fail, below 50 in everything, then the school will likely take you to the side and let you know that you need to repeat the grade. However getting a 60 in everything is not a fail, sure it may be below average or disappointing to yourself but you will not be forced to repeat a grade unless there is some exact specification in the school system. To be honest I was a slacker back in high school...I passed just fine but in order to get into University I had to repeat math 30, chem 30 and english 30 (30 level are equivalent to grade 12 courses) in order to get a higher overall high school average-this is the number University cares about. I had to go from a slacker 60 average to a 75 to get into the program I wanted. And I did it. Now I am a proud 4th year Bachelor of Science student at a research University and likely going on to pursue a masters degree.

    Talk to your school counsouler. They should be able to tell you what classes you need to pass, what classes to take, and if your on track
