Overview of the programme
Advanced Subsidiary (AS) Level represents the first half of a full A Level course and gives students the opportunity to study a broader range of subjects without committing to doing a full A Level. Students can choose to complete an AS Level examination, then stop studying for that particular subject. Alternatively, after gaining an AS Level qualification, students can complete the remaining course of study in order to take the A Level assessment. Cambridge A and AS Levels offer a flexible course of study that gives students the freedom to select the subjects that are right for them.
