Certainly not in a gap year.I might resit my AS level modules(Physics,Maths and ICT).Got Bs in those.A in Economics.Not a problem.I might resit while preparing for my A2 modules.The reason I am resitting is my GCSE grades were terrible and to get into an extremely good university for instance LSE

Yep I need 8 marks to bump a B to an A. I'm resitting a module that I got a C in. And sitting one other exam. So I'll have two exams to study for this year. :smile:

For me I was very close to the next grade, so it's a case of just gaining a few more marks here and there :smile:

What grades did you get, and what do you want to get? Maybe ask to see your paper and go through it with your teacher. They can point out to you where you lost the marks. You have to pay to see your paper, but some people I know found it really helpful when they did it last year. I'm not exactly sure how or when you can get it. But maybe contact your school.

Probably around September, I don't wanna take advantage of the free time I'll have in the coming months! Then I can spend longer on each module and completing past papers :smile:
