Thats really sad to hear
I hope she is okay, at the end of the day all they are are letters on a page and even if you have A* in every exam it doesn't mean you can get a brilliant job, i done okay in my GSCE's and A-Levels, well enough to put me on university course for teaching english drama, but if all be told, i couldn't do the job because i don't have the patience for young people!! Exams tell people that you can string a sentence together, that you can add up and know how animals reproduce, it doesn't tell you how to use common sense and more important skills you need... LIFE SKILLS, you can't live on what you learn in school! I work as a team manager in a call centre now, they are the sweatshops of the uk, the most soul destroying place to work but my patience wasn't good enough for teaching, so for all i got the grades i didn't have the gusto.
Tell this girl that the results are not everything, that aslong as she has people who love her and friends to support her then she is doing fine anyway and has a headstart in life. I'm sure others will agree
