Is it worth resitting one A-Level?

Hi guys,
So my firm university offer was AAA, however would be reduced to AAB if I got an A in core maths. On results day I opened my results to see AAC, which left me really disappointed. However, miraculously my uni still let me in, I guess because I got an A in core maths so I was technically only 1 grade off the AAB requirement, however it was still a miracle and I believe I only barely made it.
I thought I’d be able to let the C (which was in maths btw) go considering I got into my firm, but it’s been really getting to me. I was predicted an A and it was only the first paper that let me down. I also just feel like a fraud since I don’t really deserve to have been accepted.
So yeah the point is that is it worth resitting just one A-Level? Just for peace of mind, and to become more competitive for internships/jobs. Also, I’m 8 marks off a B, so I’m not sure it’s worth requesting a remark but let me know if remarking would be the better option.

Thank you!

EDIT: I should’ve mentioned I’m doing a law degree. Will my grades affect my ability to get law internships to the point I should resit/request a remark?
