Students Improving Their Engineering Grades
"The circuit analysis questions in Paper 1 were killing me. My tutor walked through op-amp circuits step by step until they made complete sense."
Ryan S.
A Level Engineering, AQA, Summer 2024
"My engineering project report was solid on the making but weak on evaluation. My tutor showed me exactly how to structure evidence-based evaluation and my NEA mark jumped."
Nina P.
A Level Engineering, AQA, Summer 2024
"The maths in Paper 2 - moments, stress-strain, thermodynamics - was really holding me back. Getting a tutor who knew the engineering context made all the difference."
Marcus T.
A Level Engineering, AQA, Summer 2023

A Level Engineering Assessment Structure
Understand exactly how you'll be assessed and prepare strategically for each component
Paper 1 - Engineering Principles
Written ExamEngineering mathematics and science, materials science, and electronic systems
Paper 2 - Engineering Applications
Written ExamMechanical engineering, manufacturing processes, thermodynamics, and design
Engineering Project (NEA)
Coursework / NEAA substantial engineering project: design, manufacture (or virtual prototype), test, and evaluate a working artefact
Grade Boundaries (Summer 2024)
Grade boundaries shift each session. These are indicative based on recent exam-board data.
Key Assessment Notes
- A Level Engineering is primarily offered by AQA - check your school offers this subject
- The engineering project accounts for 25% of your grade - start the design process early in Year 13
- Paper 1 and Paper 2 both require confident multi-step calculation skills
- Grade boundaries shift each year based on overall cohort performance
