SelvakumarWhich of the following sentences is grammatical and natural?

None makes clear what the GCE A Level relates to. I suggest that you recast into a compound predicate, something like this:

I received my GCE A Level in 1999 and joined....in 2000.

or

I received my GCE A Level and joined...in 2000.
