Resit year 12 or carry on?

Doing awful at maths rn, getting U's in my mocks. Other subjects are going decently well though. I have a maths tutor although I'm not sure how effective he is.

Should I resit the year or carry on? I have an offer from another school which means I'll do another subject instead of maths. Or do I just keep on

Be honest, do you like Maths? If you don’t, I would suggest resitting Year 12 with a different subject. I do believe you can improve your grade, but it does depend on how much work you put in over the summer. You can definitely go from a U to a C (at least, if not higher). What other subjects are you taking and what are you hoping to do after A-Levels?
