Advanced Highers now attract more UCAS tariff points than A-Levels at the same grades. [ 3 ] Also, research studies have revealed a major gap of performance on Advanced Highers examinations between different schools sectors (i.e. private schools' students attaining, on average, higher results than state schools' students).
Although UCAS tariff points were agreed for the advanced diplomas, many universities didn't accept the qualification for entry to further study. This led to the ultimate demise of the qualification. This led to the ultimate demise of the qualification.
