There are plenty of options for Island youngsters who didn't achieve the GCSE success they'd hoped for in last week's results.
It has been a good year overall, with 69 per cent of students achieving the top grades, the second-highest figure on record.
But for those who were disappointed, Co-ordinator For 11-19 Education Paul Craine says there's plenty of time to put things right, through exam resits or starting a new course.
Two years later, a poor set of A-level grades can see some doors shut forever and life-changing decisions made.
But Mr Craine says as a first hurdle, GCSE results are not a make-or-break moment:
