Firstly, you didn't mess up - two of your grades are As, well done!

Regarding the physics grade, may I ask which country you live/study in?

You actually can't get A*s at AS Level, only at A2, so you got the top grades there!

Do your AS Levels count towards your A Level grades, or are your A Level qualifications linear in your school?

On that basis, you will not need to resit your physics AS and can work towards achieving your desired grade next year :smile: Do double-check with your teacher however!

You'll need to discuss your predicted grades with your teacher. Especially if this was a shock result, your physics teacher(s) might still be willing to give you a high predicated grade. You should speak to your teacher about your result.
