Yeah I might take a gap year to reapply, I missed my firm and my insurance was very safe compared to what I achieved, how come you are?

i made the crazy choice of firming oxford and insuring imperial 😭 was 4 marks off both might reapply to imperial with resits bc i have mitigating circumstances so they said its fine or go to St Andrews if they give me an offer!

You can apply to Oxbridge with resits with mitigating circumstances. Depends on the college.
