Hahaha failed my gcses (no joke)

LISTEN, I know the expectations on TSR are high but you know what I wanna break the records this year.
I'm unsure whether I should get English language remarked as I was 4 marks off a 4, can anyone help me decide whether it's worth the money!?
Also, I got a 3 in maths 16 marks off a 4 so great!! And I passed all my other subjects like Spanish, art, science, etc....
SHALL I GET ENGLISH LANG REMARKED??!! IT'S 4 MARKS AWAY!

I'm doing Spanish, English literature and History at a level.
If I get my 4 in English lang I can do history. So, I really wanna get it remarked, but it's 4 marks so idek!
And I'm doing maths alongside my a levels and I should be resitting this November so I can move on with my a levels and not worry about maths.

Your school will probably fund the English review; it's in their interests to get as many grade 4s as possible. Four marks is a reasonable review.

The policy in our school is to review anything that's up to four marks from grades 4, 5 and 7. You have a chance but it's obviously not as likely to change as it would if you were one mark away. Also, be prepared for disappointment as the majority of marks don't change. They're more likely to have been marked correctly in the first place.

Yeah get English remarked because essay based subjects are subjective
