A Levels
guide
If you decide to study on the A Level programme you will be asked to choose up to 4 different subjects in the first year (if your average points score is 5.6 or above). You will take AS examinations in January and June in your first year of study.
2011 Prospectus
During the second year of study you will drop one of the AS subjects to study A2 qualifications, again with exams in January and June. AS (year 1) and A2 (year 2) qualifications make up a full A Level qualification. If your average points score is between 5.2 and 5.5 you will take 3 or 4 different subjects in the first year and then continue with the A2 subjects in the second year of the course.
