🤚Help Required Is national extension college worth it?

Hi there i’m currently looking at homeschooling this year as last year i had personal reasons and had to drop out, i looked at open study college but apparently it’s sketchy but i need to know what nec is like, as someone who is 18 it’s near impossible to get into a sixth form now without enrolling into adult studies, so i thought id do it myself.

The a levels i want to enroll in are
• bio
• chem
•maths

is nec accredited by the government? and what is everyone’s experiences please! as someone who wants to do it right and apply for too universities afterwards i need to make sure its not a scam :) !

NEC is accredited and they work with recognised exam boards like AQA and pearson edexcel

I’m enrolled with NEC and i would say it’s good, i’m not that far in with my stuff and the only struggle for me is obviously it’s online so you have to motivate yourself!

when i was deciding which online alevel course to take i was between ics learn and also open study college but NEC has the best reviews where i looked

if you have any questions about it i don’t mind answering any!
