Chemistry

Course summary

What in the world isn’t Chemistry? Indeed, Chemistry concerns itself with the behavior, preparation and transformation of all substances – why they react as they do. By the time you reach A Level the introductions are over. GCSE offered a tantalizing morsel but no more: a lot of what chemists do, but much less about what the chemicals do. Now the challenge has to be taken up and the explanation sought for a wide range of behavior. Would you like to know about the universe on an atomic scale, about how new developments in Chemistry lead the way in medical practice or find out why chemicals are fueling our future? If so, OCR Chemistry is for you. The course materials are very well laid out and easy to follow, providing all students with a blend of reading, activities, practicals and problems. Study skills and examination technique also form part of this challenging but rewarding course.
