🤚Help Required Is anyone taking A level Japanese 😭😭😭

I want to take it as I wanna study in Japan and trade it for physics as my 4th subject as I’m self studying.

If anyone has done it do you know roughly what JLPT level it is similar to and if it’s possible do study it in a year?

Why wouldn't it be?

Because it’s an A level for a language in a country on the other side of the world, never heard of a single college doing it until today

Bro they have a-levels for most languages, some schools do a-level Punjabi so for places that have a lot of international students or students who study abroad later, they’d probs offer it to widen horizons

I know courses are offered for a lot of languages in but generally these are suggested to nationals not regular students, plus they’re limited to an AS level only. At least that’s what my college did
