    AQA GCSE Mathematics B (Modular) - specification change?
    I have already done my GCSE maths in June 2011 and got a B in it overall:
    module 1: A
    module 3: A
    module 5: B
    Overall: B

    I'm now currently in Yr12 and have decided to resit my maths next year January 2013 in yr13 alongside my A-levels. But my question is: can I still re-sit module 5 in maths? I know that the specification is changing, but I don't understand how it's going to change and I need an A to get into Univeristy. So does anyone know how it's going to change? I've heard that there's going to be an exam at the end of the 2 year course? - I hope not...

    Is it changing for all exam boards? i just want to re-sit my module 5...

    All examiners have to change to end of course assessment for new students but you will still be able to resit next year under the existing rules.
