Relax, put things into perspective, don't be worrying yourself to death. I know you mightn't like to hear this but if you repeated, you could sit back and assess what you would like to do. I repeated and it helped me out fine. Again don't panic its nothing to get worked up over.

You could take a year out to think about what you want to do aswell.

rather then trying to choose a career, how about finding out what interests you and what you like first. Occupational therapy is a great job, but it is hard work. Besides all that, you have to think are you a people person? both teaching and OT require you to work closely with adults and children. Being an OT may require you to work with people with disabilities and other vulnerable target groups. Look into these professions on a practical level first and see if what it entails suits you! You will find more information by just googling them.

Have you a good career guidance teacher in school? It's not that big a deal once you get the qualification. You could do a postgrad in either and then be both essentially.

Panic because you only have to 17 minutes left to fill out the CAO form which can't be changed once it's filled out.
