Hi so I’ve gotten my results back today and I got 9999999987 with 8 in english literature and 7 in business, both AQA. I was one mark off a 9 in literature and 3 marks off an 8 in business. I’m quite bummed about business because I thought I did pretty well, especially for essays in paper 1. Do you think it’s worth getting them remarked or not? I’m so scared that my grades will go down after getting them remarked.

1. Are you hoping to go to Oxford in the future?
2. Are you hoping to apply for Medicine / Vet Med / Dentistry in the future?

If the answer to both of those is no, then I wouldn't advise getting a review of marking as it will make 0 difference to your future outcomes.

Yes I really want to do medicine and my dream university is Cambridge, would it be better that I get them remarked?

Update: I got my business and English literature remarked and they both went up a grade so now my GCSEs are 9999999998!
