Can I withdraw my GCSE Computer Science exam entry after i hvae sat the exam?

I didn't do very well in the second paper of my GCSE computer science exam and I know I am going to get WAY below the grade I want because most other people found it easy.

Is it possible for me to withdraw my exam entry now after I sat it? I don't want to retake but if I did I would not want a retake on my record?

The exam board is OCR. :smile:

Nope you have attempted the exam. It will be marked. Just resit it next year.
Why would you want to withdraw; it simply doesn't matter what other people "think" of the exam as they could be easily lieing or feel satisfied for getting the odd mark correct.

Plus grade boundaries for this board are quite low; would be surprising if you can't pass it since its like 30% of the raw marks.
No, that would be pointless.
