Chemistry is an exciting and intellectually stimulating course that will develop your understanding of the theory and practice underpinning the modern chemical sciences. Much of the teaching in the A level chemistry course is backed up by practical work which complements and reinforces the topic being taught. This course is the perfect opportunity to deepen your own understanding and enjoyment of the chemical sciences whilst obtaining a solid foundation on which to complete further study. Chemistry is a sensible choice for courses such as medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine or any of the sciences. A chemistry A level is also desirable for any course or career where clear thinking and a methodical approach are required. This A level would lead directly into subject related university courses and careers, and indirectly into a wide range of higher education courses and career choices. - BSc (Hons) Chemistry - BSc (Hons) Pharmacology - Careers in science e.g. Chemical Engineer - Careers in medicine e.g. Pharmacist/Doctor.
4 grade 4's and 2 grade 5's at GCSE including grade 6 minimum in GCSE Chemistry or 6/6 in GCSE Combined Science.
Three papers are sat at the end of the second year and contribute to the final grade: Periodic table, elements and physical chemistry (37%) Synthesis and analytical techniques (37%) Unified Chemistry (26%) There is also a practical endorsement which is reported separately.
