A level chemistry remark?

Got AAB with A in maths, A in physics and B in chemistry. I got into bath for chemical engineering however I was 1 mark off an A in chemistry. Worth getting remarked?

Did you want to go elsewhere? If you’re happy with Bath then you won’t need the remark.

Happy with bath would be nice to have the grade A though. Just wondering how likely the grade is to increase since even if it goes down bath would still accept me.

If it is exactly what you wanted and you have doubts in yourself to at least keep the mark, take the bird in the hand.

Hi there, did you apply to Bath with ucas predicted grades of AAB? Did you get an offer with those grades? Their entry requirements are A*AA. I have AAB( Maths, Bio, B in Chem) - do I stand a realistic chance to be accepted if I apply with AAB? (I'm not contextual)

I think it’s worth getting remarked if you're that close to an A, especially since you're already in for chemical engineering at Bath. I had a similar situation before where I was just one mark off a higher grade, and getting it remarked helped push it up. Of course, it depends on how much the remarking costs and how much you think that extra mark will help, but if it makes a difference to your confidence or future opportunities.

It's far too late to get a remark.
