They have coursework on this specification?! They didn't last year or the year before.. You can do the units whenever you want, but traditionally you do Unit 1 in Jan and Unit 2 in June as you said.

Thanks Adam,

Well I had a look through the spec that I have, and it says that Unit 1: 40% of AS and 20% of A2... Where is the other 40%???? I guessed it would be coursework.

and For Unit 2:
60% of AS and 30% of A2.

Where is the other 10%? :s-smilie:

Thanks

That's because Unit 1 is worth 80, Unit 2 is worth 120. The AS is thus out of 200, with Unit 1 being worth 40% (80/200) and Unit 2 being the other 60%. The AS is half of the A-level (worth 400 UMS total), so Unit 1 is 20% (80/400), and Unit 2 is 30% (120/400).

Does that make sense?
