A-Level Computer Science — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between AS and A2 in A-Level Computer Science?
AS covers Fundamentals of Programming, Data Structures and Computer Systems, worth 40% of A-Level of the full A-Level. A2 covers Algorithms, Theory of Computation and Programming Project (NEA), worth 60% of A-Level. A2 content assumes the AS material, which is why gaps left at AS tend to surface as A2 problems.
What does A-Level A-Level Computer Science cover?
Across AS and A2 the course covers 6 units: Fundamentals of Programming, Data Structures, Computer Systems, Algorithms, Theory of Computation and 1 more.
How long does A-Level A-Level Computer Science tutoring take?
It depends on where you are starting. Students working alongside school through the year usually take one session a week; students revising for a resit or repairing a specific module work in a shorter, more intensive block. A first session establishes which.
