Hi everyone, I'm currently doing my A levels. I originally took Biology, Chemistry and Computer science. I was struggling with chemistry as I had come to the UK only at the start of A levels and the chemistry here was really different from what I was studying back in Oman (C.B.S.E), then again because of COVID, I missed 2 years of school (online classes) and after coming to the UK in November 2021, I would not be entered into any sixth form as I was 2 months late, so I missed another year and because of that I lost all the base in chemistry and I had to start from scratch in Y12. Now in Y13, due to low grades in Chemistry, I won't be entered in for the Chemistry A level exam 😭, but I can write the computer science and biology papers. I am currently 19 years old, is there anyway to write the Chemistry paper separately ? I've currently got offers from Bangor and Plymouth, where they only require 2 subjects to enter biomedical science with a foundation year. I'm an international student, how long will I have to live in the UK to get home fees ? If I wanted to go abroad like say Australia or New Zealand, will having just 2 A levels prevent me from getting into a Uni ?

Sorry for the long essay, but I had questions I wanted to know the answers for. Thanks in advance.🙏
