The specification is divided into chemical topics, each containing different key concepts of chemistry. Once the key features of a chemical topic have been developed, applications are considered. For assessment purposes, knowledge and understanding of key concepts are treated separately at AS; important links between different areas of chemistry are largely assessed synoptically at A2. While the teaching of practical skills may be integrated with the theoretical topics, they are assessed separately. This allows skills to be developed in a way suited to each individual centre.
- A minimum of 8 full course GCSEs. These must include at least 4 at grade 6 and 4 at grade 5. A minimum of grade 5 in English language and mathematics. To study four full A levels, a minimum of 8 full course GCSEs to include at least 4 at grade 8 and 4 at grade 7. - 7 in Chemistry GCSE OR minimum 7-7 Combined Science OR grade 6 in Chemistry GCSE (6-6 Combined Science) with a grade 7 in Mathematics GCSE.
