biology a level remark advice

hi guys, I got into my firm choice uni with my grades but was a bit disappointed in them. for biology, I got a B which really shocked me. I put a lot of work into biology so thought I was clear for an A. My marks are 52 (paper 1), 63 (paper 2) and 46 (paper 3). In total: 161. The mark for an A is 165, do you think it’s worth getting a remark? I was shocked at how low my marks are for paper 1, I found that exam the easiest 😭. Can I mark an individual paper or should I just get it all remarked?
