A Level Biology is a stimulating course which explores complex biological concepts inside the human body and in the natural world. The course delves into the incredible molecular world inside our cells and relates the mechanisms to real life experiences by linking topics to contemporary issues, current medical debate and headlines. Practical work includes techniques used in hospital laboratories as well as more traditional biological investigations. Successful Biology students enjoy the hard work and demands of this subject and are capable of applying theory to unfamiliar situations. Biology students enjoy the intellectual challenge of the work, can cope with abstract concepts and work with increasing independence in order to deal with the intensity of the study required. An ability to interpret graphs and experimental evidence is essential. A-Level Biology is an essential component in many science and medical degree courses such as Dentistry, Medicine, Biological Science, Biomedical Science, Physiotherapy and Forensic Science. The course will also develop transferable skills that can support many degree courses such as Law, Geology and Environmental Science. Students in the past have also gone to University to study courses in Architecture, Marine Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, Human Anatomy and Agricultural Studies.
- The entrance requirements are a preferred grade 6 in GCSE Biology or GCSE Core and GCSE Additional Science. - 5 GCSEs at Grade 5 or above, including English and Maths, as a minimum.
