The Cambridge International AS/A Level is one of the most popular high school programmes in the world. It is widely recognised as a gold standard qualification with its emphasis on in-depth knowledge, deep understanding and development of strong reasoning abilities in students.

Key Advantages of the Cambridge AS/A Level Programme

• Internationally recognised qualification (accepted by universities across the world including India)
• Cambridge offers students the option of appearing for their final Grade 12 examination (A-Levels) in February/March. This timeline works very well in the Indian context as it enables students to prepare and appear for entrance tests for various undergraduate courses in India (which are all scheduled in the month of May).

• Cambridge International offers the option of Staged Assessment for AS/A Levels – This implies that students can appear for one board exam at the end of Grade 11 (AS Level that covers 50% of the syllabus). The remaining 50% (A2 level) is given at the end of Grade 12. This option works very well for students (as they prepare and appear for part of the syllabus and not the entire syllabus at one time) and is well recognised and accepted by colleges/universities in India and overseas.
• The Cambridge International AS/A Levels allows students to focus on the subjects that are of interest to them, which they are passionate about, and which are very closely related to the degree they want to pursue at university.
