This course will prepare you for sitting your A-Level in Biology. You will be able to gain up to 56 UCAS points to aid in your University application process.
We provide you with support for up to two years but it is entirely up to you how quickly you work through and when you sit the exams.
Exams take place once a year in May/June. You may choose to study 'fast track' and aim for the next available dates or you may choose to take a methodical approach and take them at a later date. The choice is entirely yours.
You can study the course online through a portal or receive a hard copy delivered in folders that is yours to keep.
Throughout the course, you are fully supported so if you come across anything you are unsure of you can contact your tutor by email. You also have a support team by telephone.
At the end of each section, you will complete an assignment which you will email to your tutor. This doesn't count towards your end grade but it allows the tutor to ensure you are on the right track and help iron out any problem areas. Assignments consist of exam-style questions so are effectively mini mock exams. The idea is that by the end of the course you are fully up to speed and confident you will achieve the grade you require.
There are no entry requirements but it is recommended that you have studied the subject at GCSE Level to grade C or above.

Exams take place in May/June of each year. It is the responsibility of the student to book their exams. Exam centres will charge and the price can vary so it is wise to investigate prior to enrolment.
In addition, there are also 12 practical assessments. These DO NOT count towards your actual end grade. However, if you do not take them it is marked on your Certificate. Depending upon your future plans this could have an adverse effect. It is wise to speak to the university you are looking to apply for and establish if the practicals are required. If they are, you will need to register for them with a school/college in the same way as your written exam. When the practicals take place, the training and the cost varies from centre to centre so it is wise to investigate.
You can search for a list of UK exam centres here. Not all of these centres will offer the practicals. Scroll further down the page and you will find a list of centres we know definitely do but obviously try your more local ones first from the link.
A-Level Biology consists of three paper-based exams. A breakdown of the three papers follows:

Study from Home was founded by Anthony Weaver.
Having worked in the distance learning sector for over ten years Anthony has gained a wealth of knowledge and experience as well as encountering the frustrations that face those looking to study in this fashion.
Distance learning provides many benefits.. the ability to study from home, at work, on the move... and importantly when you want to, be it morning, afternoon, evening or even the middle of the night. However, it does have its dangers. How do you know if a qualification is genuine? This is one of the most common questions asked and unfortunately, students aren't always given the correct answer.
That is where Study from Home comes in. Our biggest goal is to ensure students fully understand what their qualification means and how it will benefit them. Honesty and transparency are the foundations upon which we operate.
We strongly recommend you speak to our course advisers, either by telephone or live chat and all your questions can be answered and we can ensure you are armed with the correct information to meet your future goals.
