Chemistry

Entry Requirements

Minimum entry requirements to A Level are a grade 7 in separate Chemistry especially in the C2 and C3 exams. Furthermore, grade 7 in Mathematics is expected. Chemistry at A Level is academically demanding. The students who perform best are those with good mathematical skills and an in-depth understanding of the fundamental principles of the science studied at GCSE level. Successful Chemistry students have good independent learning strategies and skills and tend to also work well in a group, benefiting from the strengths of others as well as making a positive contribution to the group dynamics. Attention to minute details and ability to recognise patterns is highly desirable.
