Resit medicine or not.

Original post by khalilbigboy

Hi I got abb a in maths b in bio chem and was 4 marks of a in bio. If I got that I would be in kings right now studying medicine. But I’m not should I resit year and apply again or just do chem eng at Manchester. Only a few unis allow resits without extenuating circumstances apparently.

Have you considered getting a remark for Biology given that you are 4 marks off?

Mate In exactly the same position woww, got ABB, 3 marks off chem, and had a Manchester chem eng clearing offer, it’s 100% worth reapplying as one year in nothing in the long run, also chem and bio won’t be too bad having learned all the content already it’s just months and months of exam practice. And for people telling you not many unis accept resits there’s actually 11 😂
