Biology is the study of living organisms and the interactions between them. Living systems are complex, even more so than you might imagine! But in that complexity lies the beauty of life, and completing an A-level in Biology will change the way you see living organisms forever. Biochemistry: How do molecules react with each other to create the processes of life? Cell Biology: There is a lot more going on inside a cell than you could possibly imagine! You will delve into this fascinating world of tiny machines. Genetics: How does our amazing DNA encode the instructions for making us? And how are those instructions read? Organisms: How do our bodies (and those of other plants and animals) work? You will learn about several major organ systems and how they work. Ecosystems: How are all living things on the planet connected? And how do we look after them?
There is a big jump in challenge from GCSE to A-level, so you need to be committed to working hard as well has having at least grade 7 in Biology or Combined Science. You should also consider taking 4 subjects initially in case the demands of the subject are too great.
