Chemistry is the study of how things work on a molecular level. Chemistry underpins large parts of our life; from how and why certain chemicals should and should not mix to designing medicines to cure diseases and improve our quality of life. Within the breadth of Chemistry A-level students will learn about organic, inorganic and physical chemistry, whilst developing a range of transferable skills in practical techniques, conceptual problem solving and mathematical analysis. What you will study: Paper 1: Periodic table, equilibria and elements Paper 2: Organic synthesis and analysis Paper 3: Unified Chemistry Skills you will gain: Students will develop skills in literacy, numeracy, application, analysis, evaluation and problem solving. Additionally, students will develop skills in practical technique and research as part of their practical endorsement. Career Paths: Chemistry is excellent preparation for careers in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine and health care professions, It is also valued in accountancy, administration, banking and civil service. Please note: Studying one other Science subject alongside Chemistry is highly beneficial and essential study for an application for medical studies. Whilst it is not necessary to study Maths A level alongside, you will need very good mathematical skills to thrive in Chemistry.
GCSE Chemistry Grade 6/ GCSE Combined Science 6-6 GCSE English Grade 5 and GCSE Maths Grade 6
The course is assessed using two 100 mark papers (1&2) and one 70 mark paper (3). The larger papers involve multiple choice and extended answer questions. The 3rd paper focuses on synthesis of concepts and skills. A practical endorsement will also be undertaken. This has no committed marks to the overall grade but is widely required for university applications.
