I had a similar situation this time last year in your position last few days of year eleven, I threatened to kill myself and yeah they wanted to admit me etc etc.
Basically they will listen to what you say, so tell them you don't want to go and they'll definitely consider that. They'll be unlikely to admit you in the middle of your GCSEs just because of self harm. Admitting people usually only happens when you pose a serious risk to yourself. But you've just got to be honest no one can tell you what will happen I wouldn't think you'd be admitted but I can't promise, you've just got to be honest tell the truth and let them help.
Contact me if you ever need anyone to talk too.

They will take your view into account. Just be honest with them, remember they are only there to help you. They will do an initial assessment of you to see what danger you pose to yourself. It's highly unlikely they will admit you unless you've attempted suicide or have serious thoughts of doing extreme damage. Don't be scared of them, just take it slowly and open up, they will listen and won't judge you. it's important not to let yourself worry over this, focus on your exams to take your mind Off it :)
