Hey, I'm 16 and I've applied for 3 differnt colleges in my area, unfortunately I've been rejected by all 3 and I'm not sure where to turn, what options do I have now?
My grades are half decent I'm predicted 5A's 5B's. I think I didnt get in because I didnt put any effort into the personal statement aswell as my attendance not being the best (89%).
So, I just need some advice on what I can do now to get in somewhere without waiting untill next year, thanks in advance.

that totally sucks. did you swear on your statement or something?
try another in a nearby town and put more effort into your statement next time. - what course were you applying for? - i'm sure "5As and 5Bs" would cater for most further education, unless you needed specific experience / specialist qua;ifications for whatever you've applied for?!!
How about A Levels? Going on to 6th form is always a good choice.
haven't you applied for grammar/private schools though? Round here you'd get into college with 5A/5Bs no problem. 89% attendance is good too. Well practically anyone can into college here, but alot drop out.
