Why would it be ‘unrealistic’. It’s one A level and I don’t understand why you’ve come in a public chat to get people opinions. It seems like you don’t want to do it because you’re trying to get people to say it’s unrealistic so you don’t have too. I know people working 20 to 30 hours a week whiles in college doing 3 A levels it’s quite common and considering you aren’t going college and revising in your own terms it seems even more ‘realistic’.

I believe it would be possible as your only studying one A-Level Subject as i have a relative who managed to do A-level Further Mathematics during his gap year and achieve an A*. If you are willing to create a schedule and give yourself a deadline to complete learning a chapter/Topic by. You can easily achieve a high grade as there is a lot of resources for A-Level Maths and youtubers/website you could utilise to your advantage however you will have to make sure your practicing questions. As there is a lot of content to you need to know.
