GCSE paper remark?

Hi,

This year I was 1 mark away from a grade 8 in Chemistry and 2 marks away from a 7 in English lang.

I don't know if it is worth the risk and was wondering how low the marks could go and if I drop down a grade after getting the papers remarked.

Also, what date do I need to apply for my papers to be remarked?

Thanks for the help.

Remark - your grades wont drop, you are too close to the upper grade boundary
