Help with understanding a level resits

Hi I'm 18 just got my results and I'm thinking of resitting my a levels and redoing the full year 13 and my college again. Just wondering for an extra bit of advice and info how do I apply to resit my a levels and redo my course with college, how much will it cost to redo it with college, what should I do with ucas and universities that I have applied for and what happens with my student finance that ive already applied for. Also is there any support I can receive to help cover the costs of the resits.

Please can I ask what your results were and what offers you had? This will help us to best advise you!

DDE and I have a guaranteed spot with my insurance but I still considering the possibilities of resitting them.

I think ultimately it depends on how you feel about the whole situation. Would you rather try to improve your grades and go through all of year 13 again (including the application process!) or do you feel ready to move on to do your degree?
Could I ask which subject and university you have your insurance place with?

So do you know if you would rather try to improve your grades and go through all of year 13 again (including the application process!) or do you feel ready to move on to do your degree?

I decided that I'm going to do the degree with edge hill and I'm going to focus and put my head down completely while I'm there because I feel like it's a better opportunity. I'm going to aim to get a first class honours and do my masters in marketing aswell.

Also if I feel like doing so in the future, I'll apply as a mature student and resit my a levels when I think the time is right.

Amazing, congrats on going to uni this year!
Honestly, once you have a good degree grade your A Levels won't matter nearly so much anymore so you will not need to resit them.

Just a personal question to you have you completed your degree and if you have what was your experience with jobs asking about your education

I finished my law degree in 2021 and am now a trainee solicitor. I'm expecting to qualify in 2026!

Hi! I possibly want to go into law after doing a history degree. However I got BDD in my alevels and I’m considering retaking, however I got a place at Sussex Uni with the grades I have now, so I was wondering whether it was worth it to get higher grades as working in law seems competitive. Or in your experience do they not really care about alevels if you get a first in your degree? Thanks

If you do well in your degree then you're right in that firms will care more about that. However, before you complete your degree they will look at your A Level grades when you apply for vacation schemes/training contracts and you will be on the back foot compares to other candidates with much higher grades. Some firms also specify minimum A Level requirements so you may be limited in where you are able to apply to with BDD. Ultimately, it's up to you as to whether you want to resit year 13 or move on to uni.
