Students in Singapore usually start their A-Level program after completing their General Certificate of Education Ordinary Level (GCE O-Level) examinations, which are taken at the end of secondary education (typically after four years of secondary school).

The A-Level curriculum in Singapore is known for its depth and rigor, and students usually study a combination of subjects during these two years.

At the end of the A-Level program, students take the GCE A-Level examinations, which are internationally recognized and serve as the basis for university admissions both in Singapore and abroad.
