Yehh. You probably have the more English holidays. Lol. Anyway yeh under special circumstances you're usually allowed to resit it. Did anyone else fail it? This happened in my maths class - about 10 people failed the resit so they didn't have much of a choice.

Tricky one, you will just have to speak to your geog teacher or guidance and if that doesn't work, well consider taking a subject you took at SG or working harder on history to get a grade B.

The problem with working harder at history is that I already have an A at higher and think I can easily get a B, if not an A and the uni counts this as 1 subject not 2. Also, the only subject I could pick up from S.G is physics and I really hated it. I will talk to my geog teacher tomorrow. Thanks for the advice.
so why are you doing history if you all ready have an A?? or is it AH

I'm sure you get three chances with NABs, no? Also, what unit are you on?

I just failed my higher Geography NAB re-sit. It was not because I did not revise enough; I revised loads. It was the fact that my teacher told me to revise one case study and the other one, which I had not done any revision for, came up. What do I do? I really need this to get into uni and there is no other subjects I can change to. Please help.:s-smilie:


you get 3 chances for NABs

a girl i used to be friends with failed an AH physics NAB 3 times and they let her resit it again

she got a D in the exam and we're all wondering how she managed that

officially, you only get 2 chances - 1 first sitting and 1 re-sit.

you get a 2nd re-sit in 'exceptional circumstances'.
