Can you do a levels without doing o levels?

Answer 1

There is nothing to say you cannot do 'A' Levels without doing 'O' Levels but as certain core knowledge is expected it would be hard to do 'A' without first doing 'O'. Having said that, I did Archaeology, History, and Sociology successfully at 'A' Level without ever having done any of the three at 'O' Level. The best thing is to speak to the course provider - I discussed things first with an education adviser at my local college of further education. If you check evening/Adult Education class timetables on offer locally you will find some 'A' Levels on offer but they will tend to be in subjects that most applicants will have studied to a reasonable level earlier e.g. English and Mathematics. If you are keen enough and are wiling to put in the effort I'm sure you will find a way. Good luck.
