No, don't recheck. It's a wastage of money.

In AS you get unexpected grades.

I got a B in Accounting AS although I was definite of getting an A, also my teacher would always say how good I'm in Accounting. So I rechecked and the results was the same.

I've got of my friends who faced the same issue, but I have heard of others who got their grades changed.

I say you better concentrate on your A2.


Sometimes, ALLAH breaks our heart to make us whole.
Sometimes, ALLAH allows pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes, ALLAH sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes, ALLAH takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything HE gave us.


When Allah leads you to the edge of difficulty... either ALLAH will catch you when you fall or ALLAH will teach you how to fly! =]

Please make them strong ya Allah...

Well what if the grade didn't change, then I'd suggest sitting it again while taking your A2 because this is what I also did. =]

Rechecking might change your grade but the chances are like 10 %. Its better if you concentrate on your A2.
You dont have to be a nerd studying 24/7 to get an A/A*, you just need to concentrate while you study and dont procrastinate.
Good luck! :D

I would prefer you to concentrate more on A2. Rechecking is good and my grade was once upgraded that way. But you have to be very confident to do so.

Concentrate more on A2 or you could re-sit it. (:
