At A Level, the specification develops the concepts of Physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. - Physical Chemistry: kinetic and equilibria principles are further developed and are now treated quantitatively, which includes applying complex equations. - Inorganic Chemistry: periodicity is looked at in greater detail and the transition metals and their reactions form a large part of the content. - Organic Chemistry: nomenclature, isomerism, and complex mechanisms are looked at in detail.
Minimum Grade 7 in GCSE Chemistry or Grade 7-7 in GCSE Combined Science and a minimum Grade 7 in GCSE Mathematics. In addition, due to the content of the new GCSE specifications, we recommend that students have taken separate sciences at GCSE.
Paper 1: (35% of A Level; 105 marks) 2-hour written exam on Physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, and Practical Skills. Paper 2: (35% of A Level; 105 marks) 2-hour written exam on Physical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Practical Skills. Paper 3: (30% of A Level; 90 marks) 2-hour written exam on any content and any Practical Skills. 30 marks of multiple-choice questions All 3 exams are to be taken in June of Year 13.
