A* in further maths

I'm aiming to get an A* overall for further maths. I have completed the first year and got 211/300 ums so that's just about a B. I plan on retaking two units (d1 & m1) but i was wondering if i didn't retake and got an average of 90% for my a2 units would i still get an A*?

You need 480/600 overall and 270/300 in A2 units to get A*.
So yes you could get an A* without resitting.

What do you mean confirm? As in proof that those are the requirements?
Look at your exam board's website for further maths.
