you'll have to declare the failed gcse and then declare the one you passed seperately.

If it's the only resit you've had to do then it won't make much of a difference

if you don't meet the gcse requirements then that univerisity is unlikely to accept you.

universities are generally very strict on gcses so a levels don't really make a difference.

i'd rather go to the college without spending a penny than have a chance at a sixth form by spending £200 on a gcse retake , but you do you
