Self taught AS level?

Hello, I'm about to start college. How difficult would it be to take AS computing? And then go on to A level. They don't do it anywhere in my area.

How would I go about exams?

Thanks in advance

I'm surprised nobody's answered this yet, so I'll take a stab. It'll also help bump up the thread for you :smile:

I personally don't do Computing, so don't know about how difficult it would be.

About the exams, you'd probably have to sit it as an external candidate, which means that you will, of course, have to pay for the exams yourself. You will also need to find a centre (somewhere where you can sit an exam in exam conditions); your first bet should be the college - ask them if you can sit the exam if you pay for it yourself. If there's coursework you might have a bit more trouble, as someone needs to mark it - I'm not too sure on this front, but your college may be able to offer you some advice.
