Staged Assessment vs Linear Routes
Cambridge International AS & A Level offers flexibility in how candidates sit their components. GOALPAc prepares students under both recognized pathways:
Take the Cambridge International AS Level in Year 12 (carrying 50% of the total A Level marks), then complete the A2 Level components in Year 13.
Reduces examination stress into manageable stages.Take all AS and A2 components together in the same examination series at the end of Year 13.
