Please choose your options from the list of subjects in the drop down boxes below. Please select three or four subjects in order of preference including a reserve subject. Please choose from either three or four option choices selecting 'No Option' in one block if you wish to only opt for three choices. This is perfectly legitimate and over 50% of students at Reading School complete three A Levels rather than four. A very small number of students will have the option to study Maths and Further Maths in a single block alongside three other options but this will be dependent upon discussion with the Maths department and GCSE results. This is only a sensible option if the student is capable of achievement A* grades in all 5 A-Levels. There is very limited value studying five A-Levels if at least three of them are not awarded top grades. Over the last five years on average just 2% of students have completed 5 A-Levels. Please note, as per the Sixth Form Information Booklet, those wishing to study Mathematics and A Level Further Mathematics in a single block, a GCSE grade 9 and a grade A in the FSMQ (Additional Maths OCR 6993/01) is required.

Please indicate how many A-levels you would like to take.
