THE A LEVEL STARTS HERE!
So you made it on to A2 - well done, hopefully you enjoyed the first part of the course and will now be in a position to build on your skills and knowledge - there is a lot more directed time available to you in this part of the course; make sure you use it wisely.
You must put in the hours on your own as half of the grade for this year is for your coursework and then half of the exam is based around you writing about your experiences and knowledge in a critical manner.
