What you need to get on

4 GCSEs at Grade 9-6. You should gain a Grade 5 or above in English and Grade 6 or above in Philosophy & Ethics (if you take PEt/Religious Studies at GCSE).

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?
