Exam at Sixth Form

Hi there! I am new in England. I am going to start Sixth Form this September 25'.
About exams, will I do exams just at the end of Year 13? For instance, at my college in Spain, we do exams every 3 weeks, more precisely, we do exams per unit/module. And at the end of year 13, in Spain, there's a selective exam (the content/topics is all you have done the last 2 years, year 12 and year 13) to enter at university (depending on what grade you do get, you would go to this university or other).
Is similar in England?
Will I do exams at year 12 A level, right? How do you find physics, chemistry, and biology? I really love all these subjects. Why many people say that it is really difficult? In Spain are the same topics.

The only exams in Summer 2026 will be AS-Level exams, if your school does them? If not, they will use previous year's exam papers for assessment to give you predicted A-Level grades.
But you will be more likely to do all 9 exam papers at the end of Year 13 in June 2027.

Hi, i am currently doing my A levels and I am in year 12. Your school may do end of topic tests if they choose, but it will not go towards anything, it’s just so they can gauge what level you are currently working at. Then at the end of year 12 in the summer, you will complete exams based on the content you have learned that year and the same will happen in year 13. Then the summer of year 13, you grades in those exams will be added together, and depending on those results is how you can get into university. It can vary depending on what subjects you take, but usually you will sit 2 papers per subject for a year. For example for biology as I take that subject, you will take to exams in year 12 at the end of the year, and 2 in year 13. In total at the end you would have sat 4 papers for biology, and each of them would be worth 25% of your total grade for biology. I hope that makes sense 😂
