Advanced Extension Awards - usually take at the end of Year 13; shouldn't require any extra knowledge other than your A-level syllabus (yeah right - Bio AEA essays!?); 3 hour exam, etc. A lot of schools don't even know about them so I doubt whether it'd give you a huge advantage, but if you get a good grade in it, it may be a plus point for you.

What's the latest date that you can get an AEA remarked? I'm not sure what my score was but if I was very close to a Merit I'd like it remarked. I'm currently on holiday you see.
