THOUSANDS of GCSE students are nervously opening their results this morning – finding out what the future holds for them.<\/p>\n

Results have dropped for the second year running, with 68.2 percent of all grades marked at 4\/C and above.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is a return to 2019 levels.<\/p>\n

It follows a spike in higher GCSE grades awarded during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021, marked by teachers' assessments.<\/p>\n

But in Wales and Northern Ireland, results are set to be higher than they were in 2019 but lower than 2022.<\/p>\n

Over 144,000 students in Scotland have already got their grades for National 4s and 5s, Highers and Advanced Highers earlier this month.<\/p>\n

While doing this, it is vital you have your grades to hand and ask about availability for subjects you want to study as classes could be full.<\/p>\n

By calling around, you are widening your chances of getting an offer and a place to study next year.<\/p>\n

How do you resit your GCSE exams?<\/h2>\n

If you want to resit, you must apply by October 4, 2023 through your school or institution.<\/p>\n

Resit exams for Maths and English will be held between November 7-13, 2023.<\/p>\n

These results will be released to schools on Wednesday January 10, 2024 and a day after to pupils.<\/p>\n

Other subjects may have to wait until the Summer exam season of 2024, according to TES magazine.<\/p>\n

Most colleges and schools will allow you to resit your GCSEs while you are doing your A-levels.<\/p>\n
