About the examinations
There are three ways you can gain a Cambridge International Advanced Level qualification.
Ø  take the Advanced Subsidiary (AS) qualification only
Ø  follow a staged assessment route to the Advanced (A) Level by taking the AS Level papers and the A Level papers in different examination sessions. Usually this means taking the AS Level papers at the end of one year of study and the A Level papers at the end of a second year of study.

Ø  take all the examination papers in the same examination session leading to the full A Level

 Assessment

Candidates for Advanced Subsidiary (AS) certification take Papers 1, 2 and 3 (either Advanced Practical Skills 1 or Advanced Practical Skills 2) in a single examination series.

Candidates who, having received AS certification, wish to continue their studies to the full Advanced Level qualification may carry their AS marks forward and take Papers 4 and 5 in the examination series in which they require certification.

Candidates taking the full Advanced Level qualification at the end of the course take all five papers in a single examination series.

Candidates may only enter for the papers in the combinations indicated above.

Candidates may not enter for single papers either on the first occasion or for resit purposes.

All components will be externally assessed.
