Chemistry

Assessment

This is in the form of three written exams. - Foundations of chemistry 2 hours 15 minutes 41% of total A Level - Scientific Literacy in Chemistry 2 hours 15 minutes 37% of total A Level - Practical skills in chemistry 1 hour 30 minutes 22% of total A Level In addition, there is a practical endorsement in chemistry, which is a non-exam assessment. This will require you to complete and submit evidence of 12 practical tasks over the two years of study. It will result in either a pass or fail mark but does not contribute to the A Level mark. Universities offering science courses have said that they will require a pass in order to offer students a place. Students’ practical skills will also be reported separately.
