If you drop out at 16, after GCSEs, you're not gonna get as good a job as a student who stayed two years longer to do A Levels.

So after A Levels, THEN you go to regular (generally 4-year) college, like in the U.S.?

Yeah, I just wanted to clarify whether or not those two years are like high school or not. Because apparently I'm going to be in that level because I'm 17.

You'd be in Year 12, the first A Level year.

So what do I have to take, and what do I have the option of taking? Or do core classes matter anymore?

For A Level? Choose four subjects. Any four you want.

So if we have six classes total, so what are the other two then?

Eith double or free period.

So what about core classes and electives? What are your options with them? Or does it matter at all anymore?

It doesn't matter.

So I could take Band, Math (Calculus), Spanish, and English, and that would be my entire schedule?
