Maths AS retakes possible?

Is it possible to retake sections of the OCR Maths AS exam take this summer 2017?
Results were Core 1 A Core 2 U Mechanics 1 E so a D overall.
Is it possible to retake core 2 and mechanics 1 again? Or would core 1 have to be retaken also? And if so when would this be possible to do - November 2017? January 2018? Summer 2018?
Thanks

From what I can gather from the link above, since Maths new spec is introduced in September 2017 for first teaching, your last opportunity to retake any AS levels is June 2018. However, you can resit the whole course so AS and A2 until june 2019.

So if you retake in June 2018, your highest retake will go towards your overall grade.

However, don't quote me on all of the above^

It is definitely possible to do it again and no you do not have to retake core 1. I am in the same situation as you, I am afraid retakes will be taken in Summer 2018 which is frustrating. Just liaise with your teachers to make sure they know this is what you want to do.
