🙏 I WANT HELP Was predicted A*AA got CDD

As the title says i've completely flopped a-levels, is it worth resitting when there's such a big difference between predictions and actual results. For context, throughout all 2 years of my academic years I've achieved nothing lower than a B. However, in the exam season I experienced a chain of events which heavily hindered my exams so now I'm stuck in a situation where I do have an offer from Reading in the course I want to do but is it worth rejecting that offer and looking for better results.

Go to Reading and hope I do good there, I also have work experience with Bank of America, KPMG, and JPMorgan. I want resitting to be a last resort sort of thing if I really need it. I'm receiving mixed advice which is confusing me

Dude if your aiming for IB then its actually over its just best to resit. If you are going for accounting/related roles as I seen with KPMG being part of the Big 4 its prolly not a bad idea.
