I know I'm retaking: Biology unit 3
I think I'm retaking: Physics unit 3

and yes, the practicals practically killed my grades.
Psychology edexcel unit 2: got a c first time round hoping for an A with high ums.
Chemistry unit 1 and 2 (ocr a): got 2 d's mostly because of not revising so hopefully I'll do better this time round.

All my exams are on AQA :smile:

I only ask because I know OCR have made a massive c*ck-up with their results this year so you may not have to resit after all if they get changed

Didn't see a date for the article. But I did see the mentioning of Tony Blair, indicating the article being out of date.

Science seems the most popular choice so far... was the exam that bad? :s-smilie: I know a few people in my school didn't do so well in the exam, too..
What do I need to resit...


No wait, I did it all right the first time.
I'm planning on resitting my AQA Chemistry Unit 2 & AQA Maths C2, got Bs in them both! The Maths paper was such a disaster :frown:

Can you retake practicals? :confused:
yes you can retake ISA's

You'll retake them in 2013(most likely in March, but it depends on your school).

Note- you shall undergo a different practical aswell as a different exam.
