A Level 3 science qualification with slightly lower entry requirements. It covers parts of biology, chemistry, and physics in just one option block. A great science course for you if you prefer to work consistently well throughout the year and struggle more with exams as it is about 40% coursework. Applied Science allows you to keep up with science study along with a range of other subjects. A science qualification can be great in careers such as primary teacher. It can also broaden the apprenticeships you may be able to apply for. Unit 1: Principles and Applications of Science Covering Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Unit 2: Practical Scientific Procedures and Techniques Practical-based coursework, mainly chemistry. Unit 3: Laboratory Techniques and their Application Exam based on practical experiments. Unit 8: Physiology of Human Body Systems Biology coursework, including practical work.
A minimum of 5GCSEs (or equivalent) ‘good’ passes or better including either GCSE Maths or English. 4-4 in combined science, or two 4s in separate science, plus a 4 in maths.
• Principles and Applications of Science, External Exam: 25%. • Practical Scientific Procedures and Techniques, Coursework: 25%. • Science Investigation Skills, Internal Exam: 33%. • Physiology of Human Body Systems, Coursework: 17%.
