Have you let your college know you were in hospital? I'd hope they'd be understanding if you've been ill, if at all possible.

Hi Michelle, sorry to hear about your problems, yes do email college will give an extension. Back the request up with a letter from GP as well.

Oh do give your nurse a ring as well and ask to be seen asp.

Hopefully college will give you extension if you let your tutor know as soon as possible. However even if you don't finish or complete it all, still hand it in. A lower grade is better than no submission as your grade will be capped.

Definitely let your tutor know, and get a sick note to confirm your hospital visit. Many years ago my younger sister was quite ill on and off with an undiagnosed grumbling appendix during her last year of A levels. She did badly in and possibly missed (can't remember as it's such a long time ago now) some of her exams, and was actually hospitalised over the summer with peritonitis, and due to all this she was judged on her previous school work and college interviews, and was still granted her University place.
