O (ordinary) levels and A (advanced) levels together make the General Certificate of Education (GCE) qualifications.
The O level, however, was replaced in 1988 by General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE), both awarded at the end of secondary school (age 16). The term 'O level' has fallen out of use - we now talk of GCSEs.
A levels are taken post 16, at a sixth form college or school, over the course of 2 years and are required for entry to university. You may come across 'AS level' which means the first year of A level and can be a standalone qualification - A2 is the second year which completes the A level.
The"General Certificate of Education 'Ordinary' Level Examination", otherwise known as the "GCE 'O' Level" or the "O Levels" is the examination taken by students of Secondary Education in the United Kingdom, Commonwealth countries or regions associated with the British curriculum. The "GCE 'O' Level" is a subject-based qualification.
The "GCE 'O' Level" functions as to determine the standards of middle-secondary students and usually not required in the entry to college.
This usually encompasses students of Grade 8 to Grade 10.
The "General Certificate of Education 'Advanced' Level Examination", otherwise known as the "GCE 'A' Level" or the "A Levels" is the examination taken by students of Post-Secondary Education or Pre-University Education in the United Kingdom, Commonwealth countries or regions associated with the British curriculum. Similar to the "GCE 'O' Level", the "GCE 'A' Level" is also a subject-based qualification.
The "GCE 'A' Level" functions as to determine the standards of post-secondary students and is an internationally-recognized qualification to enter recognized colleges or universities. This usually encompasses students of Grade 11 to Grade 12.
