Hey, so I finished my IB this year and am on a gap year.
I was thinking of doing a few A-level subjects independently, and the related research brought forth several queries.
1. What exactly is A-levels? What are Edexcel, Cambridge, OCR, and AQA? (I'm super confused with this distinction; are they different organisations for ultimately the same examination? or are they independent of one another?)
2. What is the difference between A levels, AS levels and A2 levels? Does 'A' mean that the whole of it is assessed together? What exactly is this
3. As a non-UK student, will I be eligible to independently study and take the exams? (Okay, I guess I should send an email to them, but then that can be done only after 1 is clearer)
Thanks for helping out
