    Not getting the grades at A2.. retaking query
    Can you retake exams/ a levels without going back to 6th form for year 14?
    as in just do the exams, seeing as I already have the notes for all of units if I fail them and can buy the text books...?

    I think so, in my school I see people from the previous year who have left school come in to do exams with us

    Yes, you just need to find an exam centre (e.g. your old sixth form) willing to accept you as a private candidate and then pay them.
