A Level Resits
How do I take an A Level Resit?
1. Make an A Level Exam Booking
MME Exams offers A Level resits for Maths, Physics, Biology and Chemistry. If you book as as an A Level Private Candidate for Physics, Chemistry or Biology you need to take the practical assessment as well as the exam. You can book this through us if you would like, you can also arrange this privately. The next available exams for all of the A Levels we offer are in Summer 2025.
2. Study for your A Level Resit Exam
After making your A Level exam booking (and practical assessments for the science courses) you will have to study to prepare for it. Whilst we do not currently offer any online A Level courses we can point you to some free revision resources available on MME Revise. If you are sitting one of the science exams then you will have to sit your practical assessments at some point before taking the exam. If you have booked these through us we will handle the arrangements for you, otherwise you will have to organise these yourself.
3. Sit your Exam
When the day of your exam comes you will sit the exam as an A Level Private Candidate, your exam will be held at a local exam centre, likely to be a nearby school or college. There is no option to take your exam online at this time. Our team will be in touch well in advance of the exam to confirm the time, date, and location with you, allowing you to focus solely on your preparation. If you do not pass your resit the first time around you can book one for the following year with us if you so desire.

FAQs about A Level Resits
Can I resit my A Level exams online?
You cannot take A Level exams online, whether taking them for the first time or resitting them. The in person exams will take place at an A Level private candidate exam centre, this will likely be a school or college in your area.
When will my A Level resits happen?
A Level exams are scheduled in the Summer of every year. The next available exams that we can book you onto will take place in May or June of 2025. Exact dates are currently unknown. You should aim to have booked your exam about 6 months before the date it takes place, this would be around December. The Practical Assessments for the 3 Science A Levels will take place before the exams.
Are these A Level resit exams for adults?
We welcome learners of all ages who want to register for their A Level exams with us, whether they are school-age students or adult learners. We accept people who are resitting their A Levels, and also those who are taking their exams for the first time.
Is it worth resitting an A Level?
If you did not achieve the grade you wanted or needed in order to progress in one of your A Levels then it could be worth resitting that exam. Most higher education providers, including universities, will have minimum entry requirements, increasing your grade in your A Levels could help you meet those. Better A Levels will also increase your job prospects.
How should I revise for resitting my A Levels?
We are happy to recommend the revision resources that you can find on MME. These include revision notes, examples, and practice questions for each subject.
Are these A Levels the same as those I would get from a school or college?
Yes, the private A Level exams that we offer provide you with the same qualification as you would get by taking an A Level with a school or college.
