1- AL chemistry and math hummm...you could enter any engineering department,except mechanics maybe because it requires physics really much..and pharmacy too
2-yes it's divided into AS and A2 and sometimes AS is called A1..so if you took A1 & A2 you've taken you're AL
3-depending on the subject,if it's math,biology,chemistry or physics i don't prefer taking it as " Linear " but if it's like IT i would take it Linear.
4-yea..many friends i know are going to take AS math this november,but i don't prefer,i'm going to take it next june isA
5-yea of course,if you're really persist and they'll be 100% sure that you'll be able to complete the syllabus and solve past papers in this 3 months..!!

good luck..and wish me luck with my grades on 12th of august...! :)

AS and A2 combined makes Alevel.. It depend you what you want to do.. you can take both in one session or you could divide it by doing AS first and then appearing for A2.. As to whats better.. There is a diverse opinion about it..

You can go engineering with that combination but take physics too..
And obviously you can give maths in November session
Umm that depends on your school policy.. Like my school doesnt allow us to appear in november session

I don't think that'll get you into every field.

But here's an idea, why not take Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology? that'll sure help you.
Science students can also go to the commerce fields, and with these subjects, you can also go to the medical field and also engineering, like I said, everywhere!


Correct me if I'm wrong.
