Hmm..

Benefits:
- You can improve your grade (if you work hard, of course). Will make your O-level results look "cleaner".

Disadvantages:
- It costs a lot of money, time and effort.
- You may mess up your second year of O-level because of focusing on the retake.

I think you should give a retake, though. E is pretty bad and I don't think you'll get into a good college for A-level if they see that grade.

-needs time and money

if i were u,i would retake, in oct nov, and appear in the rest of the subjects in may june.
benefits: simple,if u work hard,ull get a better grade
drawbacks: needs money
and if u dont work hard this time,then u get a bad grade again,and that will be wastage of a huge amount of hard earned money
