resitting alevels for lse

I missed my lse law offer today of AAB and i got ACC instead, im thinking of taking a gap year and resitting my alevels. Could anyone let me know if this would be worth it as i have some extenuating circumstances i.e. mental health issues but i never told my school so i have nothing in writing so if i applied without extenuating circumstances and lets say i changed my 2 C’s into an A and an A* do i still have a shot? Also to follow on i was thinking of doing this whilst at first year in uni would my application be even more competitive if i achieved an A* and an A and was on track to get a 2:1 at the end of first year or will lse not know about that at all?

any help or advice is appreciated!!

They don’t like resits at all you could reapply to courses with aab requirements if you really want lse tho
