The General Certificate of Secondary Education or the GCSE examinations for short are the standard school-leaver qualifications taken by virtually all UK students in the May and June following their 16th birthday. If you come to a UK independent school before you reach the age of 16, you will study towards GCSE examinations in up to 12 subjects. Some subjects are compulsory, including English arid mathematics, and you can select others, such as music, drama, geography and history from a series of options. GCSEs provide a good all-round education that you can build on at college and eventually at university.AS - and A - levels are taken after GCSEs. They are the UK qualifications most widely accepted for entry to university and are available in subjects from the humanities, arts, sciences and social sciences as well as in practical subjects such as engineering, and leisure and tourism. You can study up to four subjects at the same time for two year, taking AS-level examinations at the end of your first year( called the lower-sixth) and A-level qualifications at the end of your second year ( called the upper-sixth).
