AS Levels?

Okay, thanks :)

you can take 4 AS levels tops. They can be hard, they are a lot harder than GCSE, but it depends more on which subjects. I'm not sure about GCSE and AS level, but i dont see why not? Try asking at an opening evening of a college? Some colleges preferre you to do more then 2 subjects. I'd try stretching to 3 atleast? maybe another GCSE or AS level?

Just don't take 2 if you plan on going to a decent Uni. Most Unis want 3, and some want an additional AS level with those 3.

You can take as many A-Levels as you want, whether it be the AS or the A2 level. The reason being for this, you can self-teach yourself the work and merely sit the examinations either externally, or with your college.

Many people teach themselves, Further Mathematics especially, Six AS-Levels is usually the most people take at one time, as they have to prioritise and use time management skills very well.

Many Universities ask for three A Levels and one AS Level, but some will ask for the four straight A Levels, such as Oxbridge on some of their courses.

The coursework is only hard depending on the subject you take, some subjects aren't even that heavy. (Literature is better haha)

Thanks for the replies. :)

The college i wanna go asked me if i wanted to do 5! I was like.. hmm... i'll think about it.

It depends on the college / sixth form?

The colleges where I live let you do 4 AS levels but surely it depends on your GCSE grades?
I doubt many could cope with doing more than 4, but i suppose how good you are at teaching yourself
