The skills such as critical reasoning, research, team work and argumentation are emphasized in this program along with the subject knowledge which is laid down as fundamentals.

AS/A Levels are recognized and highly valued by universities and employers across the globe. In India, the AS and A Level are considered equivalent to Std 11 and 12.

The A Levels have been recognized by the Association of Indian Universities (AIS) as equivalent to the CBSE/ ISC/ HSC or any other State Board Exam for Grade 12.

students and we wish them all the luck for their future endeavors.”
