INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMME

A-LEVEL

A levels are British-based international qualifications that are recognised by leading universities around the world.

These qualifications prepare students for admission to universities worldwide by equipping them with knowledge and skills for higher education and the world of work.

A levels are designed for students aged 16-18. The programme follows on from IGCSE qualifications and are designed to last two years. There are no mandatory A level subjects, so students typically choose three or four subjects to prepare for university admission that align with their academic interests and future goals.

Examinations are a key component of the A-Level program. They are conducted at the end of each academic year and assess students' knowledge and level of understanding in their chosen subjects.

Exam results are important for university admissions, as admission committees evaluate the outcomes to determine whether a student will be admitted to a particular course of study. Good grades in A-Level exams generally enhance a student's chances of being accepted into prestigious universities and pursuing their desired field of study.

The combinations of subjects for A-Level exams may vary depending on specific specializations and universities that students plan to apply to. Different universities may have their own requirements or recommendations regarding subjects for particular academic programs.
