Sorry to hear about your practicals, I know that awful feeling too

No advice specifically but I know you can apply to take them a fourth time, don't know anything about this process but I imagine your college will be able to help.

I'm assuming you got your mark sheets from your college? What areas are letting you down? I found my mark sheets valuable revision aids for my re-sits. Also I took a few months off after I found out, I didn't do the next resit(failed July and resat in November so missed out September) and I feel this really helped me to focus.

HTH and I really feel for you x
