Centre Assesed grades

i took three a levels last year and coz of corona i got predicted.My predicted grades were an A* B D.I am taking a gap year and retaking the a level i got a d in.I was just wondering when applying for uni will the centre assessed grades be taken seriously or would they have required for me to retake all three of my a levels.

Yes. A levels are completely separate from each other. you just do the one(s) you want to re-sit.

I also need an A so I'm spending around 4 hours a day studying.I would sometimes break that up so 2 in the morning and then another two in the evening.
CAGs are awarded grades, the same as any other so Unis don't look down on them in any way.

Ordinarily, competitive courses might want you to complete all subjects in the same sitting, but I think most unis are being quite relaxed between this year and next. You might want to check with your target unis to make sure, but I doubt it will be any concern to them.
