In the United States, there isn't a single, direct equivalent to A-Levels (Advanced Levels). A-Levels are a subject-based qualification typically taken in the UK after completing GCSEs (General Certificate of Secondary Education), usually around age 16. They focus on in-depth study of a few chosen subjects in preparation for university.
The closest equivalent in the US education system is a combination of factors:
High School Diploma: This is the general qualification received upon graduating high school (usually at age 18). However, the curriculum is broader than A-Levels and doesn't go into as much depth in specific subjects.
Advanced Placement (AP) Courses: These are college-level courses offered in high schools. Students take AP exams at the end of the course, and a good score can earn them college credit. Taking several AP courses in specific subjects, and performing well on the corresponding exams, demonstrates a similar level of subject mastery as A-Levels.
International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program: Some high schools offer the IB program, which is an internationally recognized pre-university course. It is more comprehensive than A-Levels and involves studying a broader range of subjects alongside a major research project and other requirements.
Here are some examples of important subjects which are generally regarded important for A-Level equivalents:
