I live near Liverpool, and I'm 20 and interested in doing a level maths and advanced maths plus an extra. Is there a place where I can study independently from home and when im ready, take an alevel exam?

Yes actually. Idk about other boards, but in the CIE board you can take A level as a private candidate, study all contents independently (meaning studying it all by yourself) and then take the exams in an exam centre (which most of the times is in a school that accepts private candidate) It also depends on the school though. The school that I took my exams in is not fussy, so they let me take the exams with no requirements (cause I didn't take the exam for IGCSE), but ofc you need to pay a fee. However, I heard some schools asks for like GCSE grades or you need to take GCSEs beforehand and things like that. Hope that helps Xx

Just look for private exam centres in your area, there's a few in the surrounding counties that I'm aware of - Tutors and Exams Bolton, Macclesfield College. Maths is an easy one to do from home as there's no coursework
