The Level 3 AAQ course in Applied Science is intended as an Applied General qualification for post-16 learners who want to continue their education through applied learning and who aim to progress to higher education and ultimately to employment, possibly in the applied science sector. The qualification is equivalent to one A-Level and aims to give a coherent introduction to the study of the applied science sector.
To access the Vocational Pathway you will have achieved 5 GCSEs at grade 4, which need to include GCSE Maths and English (Literature or Language). Vocational courses at merit level can be included within the 5 grades required. Students choosing to study vocational courses can still study A-Level courses if they meet the entry requirements and indeed this is recommended for certain career pathways.
The OCR Advanced National in Applied Science is equivalent to one A-Level completed over two years. The course includes two externally assessed units, and the rest of the course is completed as internal assessments.
