A Star Equivalency Reviews 

It was an easy and smooth experience. Got results in a week.

The foundation level was advertised as aimed at students 'less confident' in Maths. However, the videos did not support this and seemed to assume a certain level of competency, to the point that I do feel the same videos may be used for both the foundation and higher maths, the latter simply having additional videos uploaded. I had to complete a huge amount of background work for the vast majority of subjects before I could even follow the tutor as he was so fast (despite slowing down the speed). I also didnt find it helpful that the videos were out of order in that many of the 'blanks' were filled in during later videos. I found it unhelpful how some of the 'solution' vidoes gave a different solution to the ones that were taught in the actual videos so at times, it was hard to know how I went wrong! The solution vidoes were given by a different tutor so again, probably not as streamlined as I would have expected for the course fee. In terms of what I did like; it was easy to find my way around the site and a plentiful supply of mock tests. I would have liked a few more official past papers rather than just one though. The staff are helpful and prompt. Overall, I did pass but this was more of a reflection of the amount of hours I personally put into it over 11 weeks (56 hours during one week's holiday alone which is longer than I spend at work!) rather than the quality of the videos themselves.

Had many questions before booking and Jacob was Amazing, helped me through all of it.

A Star Equivalency has been amazing. Without their support, I would not have been able to pass my GCSE English Equivalency today. They have helped me take an important step towards achieving my dream of becoming a teacher. I am incredibly grateful for all their help and would highly recommend A Star Equivalency to anyone looking to complete their equivalency qualifications.

Avoid like the plague. This company is built in greed. An equivalency exam is worth 149 on the surface, but for anytime one will ever need an equivalency exam (i.e. not between October and March), the cost will be 199 minimum.

I have to cancel the exam for a personal reason. I had believed they would provide a refund, which they do, only with the stipulation that they take a 99/40 pound cancellation fee. It is ridiculous that they market this as a refund. This is extortionate. Please avoid

I booked my English GCSE Equivalency Test with A Star Equivalency, along with their online learning materials. The resources were excellent and played a key role in helping me pass my English equivalency test on my first attempt. Overall, I had a very positive experience and would highly recommend their service.

Really good. I had to redo my maths and biology and as a mature student it was a shock to the system. However, I bought the course and exam and then used the tutors that A Star can arrange and between us I came away with good passes in both subjects. If I can do it anyone can

I had an excellent experience with A Star GCSE Equivalency. The course materials were clear, well-structured, and easy to follow, making it much easier to prepare for the exam. The support team was always friendly, responsive, and happy to answer any questions I had throughout the process.

Thanks to their guidance, I successfully achieved my GCSE equivalency, which has helped me move forward with my career and further education. I would highly recommend A Star GCSE Equivalency to anyone who needs to gain their GCSE qualifications in a supportive and professional environment. Thank you for all your help!

I used A Star Equivalency for my Foundation Maths test as part of my teacher training application. The booking process was really straightforward and the online test itself was clear and easy to manage. I had a great experience with A Star and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing an equivalency.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have had a great experience with A Star Equivalency. The whole process has been smooth, and the study materials and support have really helped me prepare for my exams.

A special thank you to Nicole, who has been incredibly helpful throughout my journey. She helped me book my English GCSE Equivalency test and even managed to get me a fantastic discount, which I really appreciated. She was always friendly, professional, and quick to answer any questions I had.

I’m delighted to say that I have already passed my Maths and Science Equivalency exams, and I’m now preparing for my English GCSE Equivalency. Thanks to the excellent support and revision resources, I’m aiming for a high grade in English as well.

I would highly recommend A Star Equivalency to anyone looking to gain their GCSE Equivalency qualifications. Thank you again to Nicole and the whole team for all your support!

Maybe I was just unfortunate, but the invigilator I got was a bit rude in tone, sounded bothered when I was asking questions for clarification & did not inform me when there were 10 mins left as I had requested. He only told me that my time was up, which was very unfair. Also, being expected to pay extra money to get a paper certificate of your results is mad business. So be prepared for extra charges after you have passed.

I took the GCSE English Equivalency Test with A Star, and overall, it was a smooth and positive experience. Everything was well organized, from the slot booking process to the publication of the results. The examiner was friendly, professional, and supportive throughout the test.

As an Indian candidate, I was not very familiar with this examination initially. I was also quite nervous about writing my answers on paper, as the format was new to me. However, the entire process was clearly explained beforehand, which helped me feel more confident and comfortable during the test. I found everything straightforward and easy to follow.

Overall, I was very satisfied with the service and would recommend it to others seeking an English equivalency qualification.

Brilliant service, very detailed revision packs and very lovely and professional invigilators. Helped me achieve a grade 4 from maths after not being in school for over 7 years.

I recently took my English GCSE equivalency test, the process was super smooth and the staff very friendly. At the end of my exam I experienced severe technical issues on my end but upon calling them, they sorted everything, were extremely helpful and it was a smooth sailing from beginning to end.

Brilliant course, really informative and plenty of practice tests

Brilliant service 👏

Very helpful

I had the opportunity to practice the type of questions that I should expect in the GCSE Math exam and Laura kindly explained to me with similar examples. It was a very good session and highly recommend it.

I used A Star Equivalency for both Maths and Combined Science and had a great experience. Their customer service was excellent, with quick and helpful responses whenever I had a question.

The course content is clear and easy to follow. For Combined Science, I found the mock tests especially useful. As the syllabus is so large, I realised I was learning and retaining much more information by working through the mock tests. The mock tests played a big part in my preparation, and I was pleased to pass my exams on the first attempt.

If I were to suggest one area for improvement, it would be to add more mock tests for Combined Science. There are currently six available, which are very helpful, but having a few more would provide even greater practice opportunities given the size of the syllabus.

Overall, I would highly recommend A Star Equivalency to anyone preparing for their equivalency tests.

The programme is good but I was totally let down and disappointed during the exam due to a technical issue.
I lost 20 minutes without any explanation from the invigilator. I then emailed the exam office, but all they said was that 'we are sorry for the problem, but we cannot do anything.'
