EPQ – Extended Project Qualification
Overview
Students who are intending to get places at the top universities or on the most competitive courses are encouraged to do the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) as an additional qualification.
The qualification is research-based and so gives students the opportunity to study, in-depth, an area of specific interest to them. It also means that they have an individual area of interest that they can talk about at interview, which in turn, helps differentiate them from other students.

Progression
Most students who sign up to the EPQ do so to improve their chances of getting into the best universities or onto the most competitive courses. It gives students the opportunity to develop all sorts of skills – most obviously their research and presentations skills, since students are required to make a presentation on their research. These skills are essential for most university courses, and are of interest to many employers.
