  Asking your teacher/ tutor would be a good start! they'll point you in the right direction.

  Yeah your tutors next year should ask you whether you want to resit exams or not. Be warned it can cost between £9-£14 per exam depending on whether you want your paper back or not.

  Thanks for the help. Another thing, are you allowed to resit individual modules or do you have to retake the whole subject?

  You used to be able to resit individual modules - but this may have changed, again I'd check with your tutor/ college office.

  It depends on your result JK,
  
  Lets say you took politics just as an example and your marks were like this:
  
  Module 1 - 85/100
  Module 2 - 80/100
  Module 3 - 45/120
  
  Then the best course of action would be to retake module 3 to try and bump up your mark, so yes, you are allowed to resit individual modules without having to do the whole thing! It wouldn't be worth them making you resit the whole thing.
  
  I've known people to resit one module and have their overall mark improved by 2 grades!
  
  Good luck hope this has helped. xxx

  Thanks a lot guys. Just for the record, for English I got a C:
  Eng Lit 1: 94/120
  Eng Lit 2: 36/90
  Eng Lit 3: 69/90
  So I can retake 2 and all I need is a D mark to get an overall B. Sweet.
