1 mark GCSE

I was 1 mark away from getting a B in mathematics. Should I get a remark?
So the issue is that I need to take the sciences so I need a B in maths.
The remarks are going to come back in January and I cannot wait by then.
How do I convince my college to give me a place????
Yeah definitely! I'm suprised your high school haven't contacted you to put you in automatically. Call them up and ask about remarking your paper. Good luck for college!

Tell them it's being remarked, fromt this they'll know you got a high C and may evenaccept you anyway as you were so close.Also you could read up on the syllabus for the subjects you want to do and ask questions on enrollment/ induction. This proves you care about the subject and might mean they are more likely to let you do the subjects.
