How to get maths GCSE quickly
Here at Literacy Skills Test we offer learners of all ages support in their educational needs so that they can advance in their individual careers. We have many different services that students can use but today we would like to talk about how to get a maths GCSE quickly. This isn’t an easy thing to achieve especially with the limited exam times for the standard GCSE qualifications. This is why many decide to look at alternative ways of achieving what they need.
When talking about the GCSE maths exams and when it can be sat, you’re looking at two opportunities a year around May/June and November. These are 3 separate paper-based exams that will need to be taken in a registered exam centre on 3 different dates with specified times. Many people ask if they can take these exams at a later date or time to everyone else but unfortunately it isn’t that flexible due to the whole country sitting the exams at the same time. That is why there is such a limited time period. This then results in many people looking elsewhere to see if there are any other options available to them so that they can proceed earlier or at a time of their choice. One of the main alternatives is functional skills maths level 2 because of how much more flexible it is and with it being ofqual regulated it is accepted as a GCSE grade C equivalent in Universities and with employers. Another thing to consider is the time it takes to get the results back. The standard GCSE results take roughly 6 weeks to come back while the functional skills results are returned in a matter of days which makes it the fastest way to get GCSE maths qualifications. Learners could also consider the GCSE equivalency tests but they aren’t as highly recommended due to them being specific to teacher training and not as handy in progressing.
If you are seriously looking at getting a maths GCSE quickly then you will first need to consider your personal situation and circumstances and see whether it is the best option for you. For advice on this or if you have any questions about our services, please contact us as soon as possible.
