About this guide

Advanced Higher is a big step: more independent study, a long project or dissertation and longer exams. This guide works across subjects and explains what changes in S6 and how to manage it.

More about this guide

It sets ten courses side by side, explains the rules on help and generative AI, and takes you through finding your question, planning the year, reading like a researcher, primary research and ethics, writing up, referencing and the final edit.

It also covers the 2027 exams and the step to university, with model outlines for every Clarity task, a project tracker, a supervision log and a glossary.
