    Do Advanced Highers count for as, about 2 Highers if you get what I mean ?

    ... by what measure? Quantity learned? Difficulty? University equivalency?

    Think he means by unis as he said 'count as.'

    Roughly an AH grade is worth one more than it's higher counterpart. So an AH B = higher B.

    I'll presume you meant to say Higher A there.
