The EPQ is studied over approximately one year and in addition to the three A Level subjects. An EPQ is an excellent way to show universities and prospective employers your ability to work in a proactive, independent manner. It provides the opportunity to develop and apply decision making and problem solving skills. With an EPQ you pick the subject and the focus for your project so it allows you to tailor it to directly support your aspirations for further study and/or career development. Working with a supervisor, you are responsible for the management and development of the project from inception to completion. What better way to show how much you have to offer! Research says that taking the EPQ enhances the odds of achieving a higher grade at A level (A* - B) by 29% (Ben Jones, Head of Standards, AQA).
