Maybe try writing in English and you might pass your exams next year 🙂

Each practical needs to be passed as in your teacher makes sure you completed them properly. I resat biology and didn't have to redo the practices I had already completed.

I have few more queries...
* If the grades I get from re-exam are lower than previous exam, how will the grading be on the certificate?
* While re-sitting is it mandatory to redo all the a-level courses I took earlier or is it just the particular ones I need?

You can carry forward marks for NEA (coursework) from previous exam seasons - including a pass in the assessed practicals - but the marks from exams used to calculate the grade you get on the new certificate are purely from the most recent exam season. This means your grade can get worse than the previous attempt.

Each A level is separate. You can resit one - or more - and/or take a new one as well.

There are a whole load of exam regulations I could direct you to, but I've been an exams officer for 15 years and you can trust what I say.
