Should i resit or just go ahead with my insurance?

Hi all,
so obviously, results day came and went, and I got CCC, which I wasn't really expecting (though I did have some personal issues that really affected me during exam season). My firm was Newcastle for Law, but they can't let me in with those grades, and there are no other courses that they can let me into. I have, however, been able to get into Sunderland for Law. I was planning to see if I could transfer to Newcastle at the end of year 1, but they responded that they couldn't allow that.

So, now I'm wondering whether I should just go ahead with Sunderland or resit my A levels next summer.

Why do you want to go to Newcastle over Sunderland? At the end of the day they will both get you a degree in the same subject. It would probably be more beneficial to you to do the degree at Sunderland than resit your A-levels. You still have so many options if you attend Sunderland.

It might be worth just giving your Head of Sixth Form a call, or dropping them an email. Would you be able to resit there, what would be the process, and realistically do they think you can really improve your grades, etc.
