Should I bother doing the resit?

I took my GCSE English resit in November and was 7 marks off a C. I got told today that I could take it again in June, however:
*There won't be any classes at all to help me (But I've been offered help by the Head of English, if I need it)
*I'd have to pay £22 for it
*I'd have to redo ALL of my coursework because it can't be submitted for a third time
*I already have at least 3 exams in June

Beep boop. I'm a bot.

My dad said a similar thing to me - if I was to go to College of Further Education after 6th form, then I could probably take it there if I wanted to.
a lot of jobs and further education courses these days prefer you to have (or be resitting) english and maths GCSE. you might get on ok without, but for the sake of a wee bit of hard slog and £22, it'll make life a lot easier.
i know someone who only just recently got her C in GCSE maths after something crazy like 10 attempts (she's 25). she thought she might come across badly because of this, but her employers are actually really impressed by it. you gotta admit that shows some determination.
