Remember that everyone’s learning journey is different but we can have a fulfilling outcome!

Managing Your Emotions and
Making Your Decisions
Stop any unhelpful thoughts or actions that would make you more upset. Inhale deeply and exhale slowly using 10 counts as you relax your muscles. Acknowledge your emotions.
Think through the different options that are available for you. Keep things in perspective. Remember that the O-Level is just one part of your life journey and not the destination.
Approach a trusted adult and seek his/her help. Have aconversation with this person about what would be best for you.Make a decision based on your options and take action.
STOP
THINK

When you receive your results, you may feel overwhelmedby emotions. Managing these emotions well will allow youto stay calm and make rational decisions.
