Could I achieve an A overall in resits?

I got C's in most of my modules following the old spec a-level AQA chemistry except one module where I got a B. If I resat them do you think I would be able to achieve an A overall and how would I do this?
Absolutely. You can achieve anything as long as you put the hard work in.

And please, quit doubting yourself. I myself am starting AS Chemistry in september and am self-teaching it currently. Hard work + motivation + self-belief = SWEET AND GLORIOUS SUCCESS!

Absolutely not. Those are false words thus you will take no notice of them. Perhaps you were not putting the effort in but that does not excuse your mother's words. If you truly were not working hard, you will change that now. If you were, then you will work slightly harder to achieve the A* (if you are doing AS + A2 or an A if AS only).

You can do it :smile:. Just last year I was in year 10 and I was achieving C grades in chemistry simply because I was not motivated enough. At the beginning of year 11, I began to work hard and began to understand it; thus I began to enjoy chemistry and achieved A* in the majority of my mocks and I have no doubt I will achieve an A* in my real exam too. Let this be the case with you too! Good luck and if you ever want to discuss anything, you can message me :smile:.
