I want to resit as I’m not really happy with my grade

I got decent grades for me to study Alevels but I’m not really happy about it as much as I thought, I put so much effort and time for not be satisfied enough. I was wondering if I’m able to resit maths and English language this year November so I’m able to move quickly and do a levels in January. Please tell me what I could do

Could we start by you telling me what grades you did achieve and telling me what your future plans are?

For 97% of people, a pass in English and Maths and the right grades to get them to A levels is all they'll ever need.

In that case I can't see any reason why you would want to delay starting your A Levels.
Have you got a place sorted to do your A Levels at?

The only papers you should ever consider resitting are for AS level (cause they pretty much make or break your A level results which in turn affects where you do Uni). O level results are only so significant, it's not worth the stress. But have at it, I guess

Careful, that advice about AS levels does not apply to England.

Though it is sensible advice for anyone in Wales, Northern Ireland or taking international A Levels.

In england this isn't true - AS are stand alone qualifications.
