A2 doesn't really exist anymore - it was the second year of modular A levels and A levels are now linear.

Are you asking whether it is better to attend a college to do A levels in a year or to study them online?

For example, if I studied fast track a-levels for maths do I have to take 2 test as and a2 or just one test ?

There are no A2 exams and the AS results no longer contribute to the A level grade. You just take the A level exams. If you're taking a while (e.g. 2 years) over studying the whole thing and would like a formal assessment of how you're doing part way through then you could take the AS exams at that point (e.g after a year), but how you did in those would not directly affect your final A level grade and it would be an added expense.
