Advanced level qualifications (known as A levels) are subject-based qualifications that can lead to university, further study, training, or work. You can normally study three or more A levels over two years. They’re usually assessed by a series of examinations.
What grades do I need to take A levels?
You normally need:
at least five GCSEs at grades A* to C
at least grade B in the specific subject(s) you want to study
However, the specific requirements needed to study A levels will vary across schools and colleges. It's important to check what you will need with the school or college you are looking to study at.
Who are they for?
If you're thinking about going to university, most higher education courses require specific A levels or combinations of A levels (or alternative level 3 qualifications).
If you’re not sure what career or job you want to do, studying a selection of A levels can be a good way of keeping your options open.
Choosing A level subjects
The most important criteria for choosing A levels subjects are:
Looking at what you are likely to enjoy and be good at. If you enjoy a subject or have an ability in it already, you are more likely to do well.
Are there any particular subjects and/or grades you may need? If you have a particular career, job, or further study in mind, you may need to choose specific A levels in order to meet entry requirements.
How open you want to keep your future study and career choices?
