- Does your school provide both IB and A-level and you don't know what to choose. No worries we are bringing you a comparison so you can make the best decision.
Outline of the differences: With A-level there is no upper or lower bound on how many subjects you can take, generally students take around 3 A-level subjects. However, IB consists of six subjects and you have to take all of them. A-levels are taken by more students but they have the most weight only in the UK. If you are planning to go to a uni outside of the UK, IB would be the better way to go for you because it is internationally more recognized.

I just finished my final highschool exams last week. I was struggling with the choice of taking IB or A Levels. Thank you for this video. :)
yo, what did u choose and how'd it go?
Very helpful, keep up the good work :)
I am from Europe, and still not sure where exactly I want to enter uni, whether it will be Europe or US(or maybe even any other place). Can you please tell, is A level recognizable around the world?
A levels are recognized widely, although IB tends to be better if you don’t know where exactly you want to apply
I am currently living in Singapore and am doing IGCSE. Should I stay in Singapore and complete IB in a few years or move to back to England for A levels? Some people say that Oxbridge prefer students that have come from different backgrounds. Could staying in Singapore give me an advantage? Im interested in studying law or economics at university. What would you recommend?
My school does ib, but I feel like a levels are a better fit for me. So can I transfer schools after I finish my GCSEs? Is that going to affect my university application?
Yes you should be able to transfer, although that can depend on individual schools
if i want to go to us after 12th but do not want to study extra subjects can i take a levels is a levels respected by the American universities?(i am an american citizen studying and living in india)
