    Retakes for reapplication?
    So I messed up my A Levels. I got AABB. And I want to reapply for Mathematics, but would uni's such as Kings and Birmingham accept this? I need to either retake and get Maths to an A* grade or Further Mathematics to an A grade.

    What do you think? It sucks that I put myself in this situation

    Would they accept a re-applicant? I don't know, check the website. If it doesn't say anyhthing, you're cool. You still need to get the necessary grades, so with you also re-sitting, you need to check if they accept re-sit applicants. If in doubt send a nice emial. If you're asking if they'll allow you with those grades when they're asking for higher ones, no; re-sit.
