Chemistry makes sense of the material world. It develops curiosity, problem solving abilities, practical competency, independent thinking, numeracy and the confidence to take academic risks. Chemistry gives you knowledge and skills which are transferable to many areas. Universities and employers look very favourably on success in A Level Chemistry, as they value it as evidence that a candidate possesses a range of useful skills. Above all, it is great fun.
You will be expected to have achieved at least a grade 8 in GCSE/ IGCSE Chemistry or a grade 88 in Double Award Science, and a grade 7 in GCSE/IGCSE Mathematics before embarking on this course.
Paper 1: Advanced Inorganic and Physical Chemistry. 1h45 paper worth 90 marks and 30% of the A Level. Paper 2: Advanced Organic and Physical Chemistry. 1h45 paper worth 90 marks and 30% of the A Level. Paper 3: General and Practical Principles in Chemistry. 2h30 paper worth 120 marks and 40% of the A Level. The papers include multiple choice, short open, open–response, calculations and extended writing questions. There is also a series of core practicals which are teacher assessed over the two years of the course.
