A levels in 1967, 1984 and 1994?

Question

I have 6 Highers, 2 of which subjects I also passed at CSYS level (Scottish qualifications) Highers being at a lower level than A levels, and CSYS being worth more than 'A' Levels. I achieved these in 1994 (I have 7 standard grades which are the equivalent of 'O' levels).

My partner has 2 'A' levels with 8 'O' Levels, achieved in 1984.

My mother has 2 'A' levels with 8 'O' Levels achieved in 1967.

Whose qaualifications are worth the most?

Answer 1

same

Answer 2

Huh? It depends on the grades they achieved. Two A levels at grade A are worth more than 2 A levels at grade E from whatever year.

It also depends on what you want to do with them. If you want a job in engineering, an O level in maths or physics is probably worth more than an A level in Ancient Greek.

Answer 3

Your partner and mother both have higher grades than yourself and they are both "worth" the same.

Answer 4

It's roughly the same. In 1994 the exam system was not quite as stupid as it is today.
