We don't have January exams next year, so you would have to resit it in the summer 2014 if you don't want to resit it this time.

Best of luck for results day!

Hi, yeah OFQUAL have decided to end January examinations now, so you won't have an opportunity to resit any exams until the Summer of your A2 studies... I hope you did well enough in your Jan exams, I myself am panicking too because I really don't want to have to retake any of them at all...

Good luck and I hope all goes well for you on Thursday! (Schools get the results on Wednesday, but they legally are unable to show us until Thursday from 6AM.)

- Good Luck again, J.

You can resit whenever you like, it's the school stopping you not the exam board. How are you getting your results on Wednesday? Schools aren't meant to release them till Thursday 6am
Can I resit my as level in physics in October 2014?
