The GCE Advanced Level timetable, admission arrangements and result notices are different documents. Match the examination title and sitting rather than inferring the current schedule from an older academic year.

Identify the sitting

Use the Department of Examinations website to locate the relevant A/L notice. Confirm the year, paper, medium and any revised schedule before making travel or study arrangements.

Confirm candidate instructions

Read the official admission and examination instructions and confirm school-candidate arrangements with your school. Private candidates should follow the route specified for their own category.

When results are announced

Reach the results service through the department’s own links. University application is a separate step through the appropriate UGC process; obtaining a result is not itself a university offer.
