Please be aware that students needing to take an extra year in order to re-take some of their A Levels/H2’s maybe at a disadvantage with their application. This is because applications are considered on their own merits and in competition with others. Therefore, if a student has the same grades as you but has achieved them first time round they would be in a stronger position.

Once again, if you're reading this space, I hope you'd see the importance of getting it right the first time. It's too late for me to say this to myself, but I hope the warning above is loud and clear to everyone currently doing their A Levels this year.

Regards.

To everyone else, here we go Friday.
