These new Chemistry courses were introduced in September 2015. AS and A2 qualifications are separate and have completely different exams. The AS course is one year and is examined at the end of year 12 with two 90-minute papers. The A2 course covers 2 years work including the material studied at AS and is examined with 3 papers each 2 hours. The practical aspects of chemistry will be tested in these written papers. “We come here to be philosophers, and I hope you will always remember that whenever a result happens, especially if it be new, you should say, “What is the cause? Why does it occur?” and you will in the course of time find out the reason.” Michael Faraday. Chemical reactions are at the heart of our existence. A sequence of chemical reactions keeps us alive. Chemical reactions heat and light our homes and cities, and provide much of the energy to transport us from place to place. Chemical reactions colour our world. Chemical reactions provide plastics, drugs, pesticides, explosives, building materials, clothing, food flavourings and additives and much more. So, if you want to understand some of the most important and fundamental processes which occur on Earth, then study chemistry. If you enjoy practical laboratory work and can cope with some Maths (at least a grade 6 at GCSE) then study chemistry. If you are intrigued by the science studied so far, and want to find out why some of the answers at GCSE seem incomplete, then study chemistry.
