Aren't you meant to be resitting them alongside the course(s) that you're doing?

If not then I suppose you do it as a private candidate like many people seem to. :smile:

You have missed the chance to re-sit it next week so it will have to be in the summer. Ask your current college if you can re-sit there. If they won't let you then you need to find somewhere that will accept you as a private candidate. The entry deadline is 21 Feb. You are allowed to carry forward the controlled assessment/coursework which you will have to do if you enter as a private candidate.
