What is "Advanced Level"?
Advanced Level, often referred to as A-Level, is a set of exams taken by students in the United Kingdom, typically at the end of their secondary education. The exams are usually taken in specific subjects, such as mathematics, science, or humanities, and are designed to assess a student's knowledge and understanding of advanced concepts. A-Levels are often a requirement for university entry, and the results play a significant role in determining which higher education institutions students can apply to. The exams are generally taken at the age of 18, after completing two years of study.
