btec applied science level 3 unit 1 exam

I got a pass in my Unit 1 exam should I resit the exam?

With BTECs, even if you resit, you keep your highest grade. So why not try aim for a higher grade? Basically no risk involved and it will boost your overall grade! :smile:

You can aim as high as you want, i assume this unit only consists of an exam and no other assignments therefore whatever grade you achieve on that exam will be your grade for that unit. You wont be capped at what you can achieve.

I was in the same boat as you, i was studying a L3 BTEC in Business, Finance & Management. I got my exam results back and i got a D and a P so i wanted to resit that exam that i only got a pass on. I was constantly asking around and researching to understand how it works.
