- Completing the correct sequence of subjects at both AS and A2 level means students have finished a full A level in a subject.

How many units should I take to get AS or AL certificate?
E-Lyn, A-Levels at HELP Academy
- For sciences, you need to take three units to be awarded an AS Level Certificate and five units to be awarded an A Level Certificate.
- However, for other subjects such as Accounting, Mathematics, Economics and English Literature students need to take two units to get an AS Level Certificate and four units to get an A Level Certificate.
- To get an A Level Certificate for Further Mathematics, students are required to take all the two units at A2 level.
What happens if I am dissatisfied with my results? Can I retake an exam if I am unhappy with my marks?
- You can discuss your options with your subject lecturer. It is possible to retake subjects.
- However, students unsatisfied with any of their individual units must re-sit the entire level.
- Also, some university courses, such as medicine, sometimes require students to have taken all their AS or A2 units in a single sitting without any re-sits.
- It might be worth considering having the paper remarked.
