A levels are divided into two parts. In Year 12 students will study the Advanced Subsidiary. In most subjects this will consist of two units (modules) examined at an intermediate level between GCSE and the full A level. In Year 13 a further two units are studied to form the second part (A2) of the full A level.

It is likely that your first three subjects will be complementary, (e.g. Maths, Physics, Chemistry, or English, Drama, Media Studies). You may wish to consider a contrasting subject as your fourth choice (to AS level only). For those with a straight Science combination, this may be a language or a practical creative subject, and vice versa.
