General Studies AS / A Level

GENERAL STUDIES AS / A LEVEL
It's your chance to obtain a 4th A Level, which will look good on application forms, and demonstrate your ability to cope with an additional workload. Over 90% of our students generally pass the A Level. Many universities accept General Studies and award a full points tariff for it (remember that University Departments do not always follow the University's official policy).

Even if universities do not officially accept General Studies, many students who underachieve in other subjects are offered places on the basis of a General Studies pass (a handy insurance policy). This happens every year to a significant number of our students.

What do I study?

...and what else?
Above all, it's good for you! It's an opportunity to broaden your knowledge and understanding and to discuss and consider major and controversial issues.
