I have meet the question as below
1. Please confirm that you are currently studying or have already obtained three A levels, five Scottish Highers, or equivalent. You must have obtained the qualifications listed in advance of the programme start date in September 2024.

2.Please confirm if you have obtained any of the below or are currently studying: a Mathematics A Level or a Mathematics Scottish Higher. (Please note if you select 'Yes' this will be verified at a later stage in the recruitment process).

If you have not completed, or are not currently working towards, a Mathematics A Level or Mathematics Scottish Higher - Please select ""No"".

If you have an equivalent qualification you will have an opportunity to supply additional education information.

Please confirm whether you have obtained, or are you currently studying towards, a Mathematics A Level or a Mathematics Scottish Higher?

both of these two questions' answer is yes/no, should I choose no in these two question?
