Question

is there a top set middle set bottom set like in gcse's for a-levels i hope thier is because if there isnt some people will ruin our lessons by messing about and causing trouble. also people with of a lesser ability will tak longer to understand some thing no offense to them

Answer 1

The fact is that if you're an "A-level" student, you will learn and develop academically regardless of who's in your class.  More and more, schools recognize the need for today's classrooms to be more inclusive -- they do not hinder the learning of advanced students and they promote social, as well as, academic development in those students who struggle with their grade-level curriculum.  If a student is a good, eager to learn student, he or she will always find a way to learn, no matter who else is in the class.  

Answer 2

If you are about to embark on AS levels then you really need to sort out your grammar and spelling.  As for your question it really depends on the school.  Some schools will find that there are only enough candidates to warrant one class so then yes it would be mixed ability, however at other times there are more candidates so the school tends to have two or three sets that are indeed streamed, they may be called AS History A, AS History B and so on.

Answer 3

No.  Not unless you go to a private sixth form - then they may set you but it is unlikely because class sizes aren't big enough.

No one will ruin the class for you - A Levels are chosen so the people who are there will want to be there if they don't like it then th just won't attend - trust me.

Answer 4

no not at all you are just put into classes its normally by alphabetic order of your surname cos in my classes it was because basically in college everyone starts off at the same point so everyone learns together
