you meet the requirements for Penisula. It depends on the ukcat really, ace that and u are in with a really good shot.

LOADS of unis will accept resits, you would be surprised. Some dont even care if u had no circumstances.

watch out for ones that say they do if u ask them but actually they dont really unless u have some pretty bad circumstances. Just be realistic about where you apply and do all u can to prove u have what it takes

AFAIK, Peninsula, UEA and BSMS accept resit students without extenuating circumstances so you can probably apply there. Call up and ask! Peninsula did offer ABB offers last year, UEA and BSMS require AAA at A2 if you decide to resit.
