General Studies
Students may choose to do AS General Studies (AQA) in addition to their other AS Levels. The extra workload is minimal compared with normal AS Levels but it does provide students with the means of broadening their education and of demonstrating to universities their intellectual curiosity and breadth of knowledge and interests. The AS General Studies examination is taken in January of the Lower Sixth.
It is examined by a mixture of multiple choice and stimulus questions. Although there is little formal teaching for these examinations, students will find that their AS and other courses plus general reading will enable them to obtain a good grade. Candidates are provided with past papers and some extra tuition for the examinations if required. Students may obtain the A2 qualification in the Upper Sixth.
