it differs between exam centre to exam centre like some will be 300£ per subject, others have special terms for resitting private candidates and its cheaper than that, others are wildly highly priced and can go up to 500£ per exam, search up exam centres near me and go through their subject cost list ie for example a cheap one in manchester is intuition. You could also sit at a college as a private candidate and you could phone up to see their prices as they might be cheaper.

Also, chemistrty bio and physics have an extra cost for practicals. Practicals are atleast 500£, and usually 100£. The only place in england that does them for 500£ to my knowledge is birmingham exam centre but you have to book early and the later you do it the more it adds on.

Its cost me £650 for 2 exams. And I also paid more to do mock exams and get a ucas reference from the centre i'm doing it with.
