Hi, I'm so sorry your results didn't go to plan. I'm no expert on this but I expect that you may well have to pay to resit no matter what, although if that is what you decide to do I do hope you can find somewhere to do it for free. If your offers from the two unis give you the time, I'd wait until your meeting to make any decisions. I think a major thing to consider is why you feel that way about your grades. Obviously I know its heatbreaking, but if you'd be happy at the unis, its important to remember that once you are at uni your actual grades at a level won't matter that much. My dad likes to remind us all that he got Es in some of his GCSEs and A levels, but he was really happy with his degree and job and has now retired early. Low grades won't stop you living your life. If however, you don't think you'd be happy at those unis, resits might be worth it. Other options could include foundation years which could let you get the support to move onto a degree you want at a different uni next year. I really wish I could be of more help, but hopefully your college will be able to advise you next week. I hope that helps you figure out where your at a little bit, and at the very least brings attention to this thread from someone who will be able to help you a bit better. Best of luck xxx
