A Level Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)

David Game College is excited to offer students the opportunity to complete the extended project qualification (EPQ) beginning September 2020. The AQA Extended Project will sit as an added qualification to be pursued by ambitious academic students. This qualification is worth 28 UCAS points which is equivalent to an AS Level, and is designed to give students an advantage when applying for competitive degree courses; in particular the Russell Group universities.

The Extended Project will clearly be a way of giving students the edge over their competitors. It is a separate qualification and potential EPQ students need to understand that it is a sizeable commitment and will require a great deal of independent work and study. The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) will allow you to develop and extend from one or more of your study areas and/or from an area of personal interest or activity outside of your main programme of study.

It will be based on a topic chosen by you and agreed as appropriate by the course supervisor at David Game College. The Extended Project (EP) gives you the opportunity to demonstrate a wide range of academic skills and show prospective universities that you are proactive, capable of independent study and have wider academic interests in and around your subject choices. In an increasingly competitive market, your university application will be considerably strengthened by adding the EPQ to your portfolio of qualifications.
