A Level Computer Science Retake

Hey I wanted to ask if I am able to retake Computer Science A level but use the same NEA but for a different exam board. I originally did AQA computer science but if I wanted to retake i would be doing OCR. Thanks

I dont think you can, as OCR require documenting the development of your code in the NEA, whereas AQA only required the final version.
But I am no expert, wait for some other replies before making a judgement
Hey, do you have ig I’m in a similar predicament as you.
