A levels

A LEVELS IN NEPAL 


So you have passes your SEE without even giving examination same pinch I have also completed my A2 or 12th grade for normal NEB board without giving examination. 
     
    In Nepal when a SEE graduate look for his higher education probably he looks at some of the +2 colleges but most students are unaware about other opportunities like as A levels, IB board and CBSE board and I will talk about it in my next blogs. 

So, what is A levels? 

 A levels is the higher level of education or curriculum board under Cambridge Assessment International Education or normally you can understand it as subsidiary of Cambridge University, you definitely should have heard it once maybe in super 30 movie, and A levels is the course designed that makes you eligible or confident for studying at any international universities.

Why A levels!

 So you maybe thinking about why to study A levels what is unique about it or why to take risk for it rather than doing normal NEB +2.
1. It is flexible
In A levels you can combine any kind of subjects choices (physics and psychology) or (Biology and computer science) can that be possible in NEB you may first laugh at it why to choose two dipolar subjects but in international universities you need to choose a major or minor that can be irrelevant to each other on subject matter and you may find any of the sciences hard probably chemistry but you have keen interest in physics so why to take extra pain when you can take any other subjects that might interest you or you can handle it more easily than chemistry.

  2. It is recognised by all of the top universities and colleges

 Yes being part of Cambridge University most of the universities like harvard, Princeton, yale or MIT has recognised it as a vivid course and you don't need to pay dollars to make your certificate recognisable.

3. Yes it is expensive in compare to NEB but research you can land on 100% scholarship and be a part of  course that focuses on understanding than on memorizing

 If you can land a good scholarship than the money you need to spend is same as any moderate NEB college and the only thing expensive will be examination fee but you will never regret doing A levels because it makes you capable of competing in international level and even can top the chart. 

I will tell you some difference between  A levels and NEB +2 in next blog

NEB vs A level

Difference between NEB +2 board and CIE A levels - In +2 you can either choose science stream or any other stream or you are not allowed to took science and no science courses together and even some sciences are not allowed together like Biology and Computer Science but in A levels you can combine any sort of subjects.  - In A levels sciences practical exams are also highly important as you have to give your practical exams in your centre and its strictly monitored not as +2 where you perform practicals at your own college and teacher sends your marks and one thing you should know that cheating in A levels is like catching fish with your hand in river.      - There are only few colleges where you can study A levels and most of them are inside Kathmandu Valley and only few are in pokhara and one each in chitwan, butwal and biratnagar so there are fewer choices for you but there are thousands of +2 colleges in Nepal.  - A level exam is way vigo...

How should you start your college search?

  Knowing your EFC and researching college   EFC which stands for Expected Family Contribution is a term that you will hear thousands of times while applying to universities especially if you are a student applying for financial aid.  EFC is the fixed amount of money your family is supposed to contribute to your college costs for one year.
