What the college says

The EPQ allows you to develop and explore your personal interests on a topic you feel genuinely enthusiastic about. It will also give you a taste of independent research-led study, something that you will have to do regularly at university. The project has no exams, just coursework so if you're self motivated and enjoy working independently - whether in a practical way, like designing or performing or researching, investigating and writing - then the Extended Project is for you.

What this level means
