Number of subjects: You can rewrite up to four subjects, but you can upgrade or add as many as you want.
Subject changes: You can't change subjects when you rewrite, but you can when you upgrade.
Here are some other things to consider:
Time limit
You can rewrite subjects up to five years after your last exams.
Registration
You can register to rewrite subjects at your high school or an examination center. You can also apply online through the eservices.gov.za portal.
