Structure

The duration of an A Level programme, consisting of the Advanced
Subsidiary (AS Level) and the A2 Level, can be anything between 18
and 24 months. Institutions can follow one of two main structures,
namely a ‘staged’ programme where students complete the AS Level
exam (50%) in their first year and the A2 Level exam (50%) in their
second year, or students can sit for one final A Level examination at
the end of the programme. Some subjects, however, do not allow for
the staged assessment route so it is advisable to do your research and
confirm the specific options available. Students also have a third option
and that is to only sit for the AS Level examinations, which is half of the
syllabus content, but this will not allow for a full qualification.

You want to study at a university that produces the graduates who get
great jobs, become future leaders and have the ability and opportunities
to make a difference in local and wider communities. Look for a
university which has an international and culturally rich environment.
These experiences provide you with opportunities to develop that global
outlook which is very much sought after by employers, especially those
multinational companies. You want to go to a university that engages in
and has a reputation for impactful and ground-breaking research. Look
at the staff in your discipline of interest, who they are and what they
have achieved. You want to be taught by the best. In addition, institutions
that consider the health and well-being of their students, who have
programs focused on the personal and the social, are those to search
for. Opportunities are plentiful when you graduate from a highly-ranked
and well-respected university.
