Note

Cambridge International AS & A Level examination series twice a year, in June and November. Results are issued in August and January. The Cambridge International A Level is reported on a grade scale from A* (highest) to E (minimum required performance). There is no A* grade for Cambridge International AS Levels, which run from grade A to E. Learners can choose from a range of assessment options to gain Cambridge International AS & A Level qualifications:

• Take the Cambridge International AS Level only. The syllabus content is half a Cambridge International A Level.
• Take a ‘staged’ assessment route – take the Cambridge International AS Level in one examination series and complete the final Cambridge International A Level at a subsequent series. AS Level marks can be carried forward to a full A Level twice within a 13 month period.*
• Take all papers of the Cambridge International A Level course in the same examination session, usually at the end of the course.
