Hey guys,
I basically passed English Core in Year 10 but I failed the actual GCSE English with a D (1 mark off a C). I know Uni's accept core results, but I was thinking of maybe resitting the English exam in October/November. I want your guy's opinions - should I resit the exam so I can get a C+, stick with my D in the GCSE or stick with my C in core when giving my results to universities? Most Uni's I've seen want a C minimum to get in, so that's why I want some help from you guys.
Another thing that I'm not sure of is that apparently now you HAVE to do an oral English exam if you're a non-native English speaker and you want to get into a university in the UK. Is this true?
Thanks!
