Should DD forget A levels? Latest GCSE mocks 4’s and 3’s

DD latest mocks results aren’t great.

She was planning to do A levels in sociology ( predicted 3- so out of the question)
geography (predicted 4)
Psychology (doesn’t do GCSE).

Do people just wait and see how the real results are before deciding?

Shes predicted a 3+ for English language so presumably that will be a resit?!

It’s all a bit depressing. Not sure if she has a learning blockage or just can’t be arsed. She is revising sometimes but she’s not exactly a grafter.

We’re in London where it seems you have to get 5’s to even get a 6th form place (she’s planning to stay at her school).
Perhaps vocational courses may be best for her.

Advice welcome!

There's some fabulous Apprenticeships out there. She could have a look at those.
