Surely it would be free? Never heard of it costing that much even for mature students who do alevels.. prices I've see are around the 3k mark..

Per unit!? By unit you mean individuals units with a subject, right? ****. How many units is there in the average subject?

Depends where you do them mate. If you can find a state school willing to take you on as a private candidate it can be much cheaper. About 4-6 for a full a-level. 2-3 for an AS.

My local college charge around 2-3k for an alevel if you aren't entitled to do them free, for whatever reason.

Fair game, that's actually not a bad deal but it's still expensive.

True I wouldn't pay that kind of money for A-levels unless I really wanted to be a doctor or similar. I think with the right attitude combined with free time, most A levels can be self-taught.

What resources do you use?

Posted from TSR Mobile

For bio and chem i mostly use text books and online notes.
For maths I do book exercises and exam papers. If I get stuck I use google and tsr.

I'm self teaching the full Chemistry A level this year.

Self teaching A levels in maths, further maths and physics as a private candidate, including the practicals for the latter subject (found a very good deal).

£270 apiece for maths and FM, including exam fees, cost of marking and invigilation, admin fees, mailing of results etc, and £540 for the practicals and £300 for the exams and other associated costs at another centre.

For maths and further maths, I am using Edexcel, whereas for physics, I have a choice of either OCR A or Edexcel.
