Course Content: The modules are: (1) Practical skills (2) Foundations in chemistry (3) Periodic table and energy (4) Core organic chemistry (5)Physical chemistry and transition elements (6) Organic chemistry and analysis. Subject Linking: Many subjects link well with Chemistry. It is commonly studied with Biology, Mathematics, Physics and Geography. Progression: Chemistry is considered as a 'facilitating subject' for a range of degrees, not only the sciences.Chemistry A level is a highly respected A level, with its broad variety of tested skills, and it is a good choice for many degrees and careers. Chemistry has been described as the ‘central science’ and is often combined with either physics or biology. Chemistry is a compulsory choice for anyone wishing to pursue medicine, dentistry and veterinary science, as well as chemistry-based degrees, such as pharmacy, pharmacology, and biochemistry.
6 - Maths, 6 - Science
Assessment: There are two 100-mark papers (papers 1 and 2) and a 70-mark paper (Paper 3). Paper 1 examines modules 1, 2, 3 and 5 Paper 2 examines modules 1, 2, 4 and 6 Paper 3 covers all 6 modules. There is also the practical endorsement, which whilst not examined and therefore does not count towards the grade, needs to be completed to a high standard in order to be awarded.
