A-level retake courses at CIFE colleges
Retaking A levels is probably the last thing you want to do. However, not only will better results get you into a better course, but the experience of retaking will probably make you a much better university student too.
An effective approach to A-level retakes
CIFE colleges know A-level retakes inside out and their expertise isn't just about exam-aware teaching, it is also about helping you sort out where you went wrong last time and supporting you to make sure you don't go wrong again.
Most people are pretty gloomy at the start of a resit course, and helping you feel positive about your prospects is one of the features of effective teaching You should quickly find that you are moving forward rather than simply repeating last year's learning.
A-level retake options
In helping sort out the best approach to A-level retakes, each student's case poses different questions: "what do I need to do to improve?"; "what can I hope for?"; "what is the best pattern of courses and unit exams to achieve my goal?" etc.
Balancing the number of units to retaket against work-loads, extra UMS points etc needs thought and expert advice. You will need to talk to your old teachers to find out what they think you need to do in order to improve, and you will certainly need good independent advice on what is possible.
