Retaking A-Levels

Hey, I received a CCE for Math, Computer Science and Physics.

I know I can definitely do better due to revising really late. I was wondering what the different ways to re-sit are as, I am reading many different options varying from a couple hundred pounds to a thousand.

The only thing I am certain about it re-sitting at home where I do not have to go into lessons, whether this be with a centre of my previous sixth form.

If you can use your school /college as an exam centre then all you need to pay for is the exam fee.
Do you actually need 'a course' or could you actually just put yourself through it, revise like crazy, and then just sit the exam?

Hey @Mohammad Yusuf 👋

Congratulations on your exam results. Whilst you didn't quite meet your expectations, you should still be really proud of yourself.

If you are certain that you want to resit your exams, I would recommend speaking about your options with your sixth form tutors. They will have received many similar queries from other students and will be best placed to advice you on your next steps, factoring in what option would be most convenient and cost-effective.

Best of luck with your next steps.

I do believe I can study alone and put the work in!
