Do you have an interest in the natural world and all the living things in it? If you’ve answered yes, then Biology could be a great A-Level for you to study! From the largest mammals to microscopic DNA, Biologists study how animals and organisms work (including humans), how we have evolved and used this knowledge to try to do things like stopping diseases, improving public health and animal care.
It is advisable to have a 66 in Double Award Science or, for those sitting Separate Sciences, at least a Grade 6 in both Biology and Chemistry. Good GCSE passes in English and Mathematics are also preferred.
There are 3 written exams: 1. Biological Processes 37% 2. Biological Diversity 37% 3. Unified Biology 26% There is a practical endorsement section which is non examined and assesses the students ability with planning, implementing, analysis, evaluation and practical skills. The development of practical skills is a fundamental and integral aspect of the study of Biology and they enhance the understanding and knowledge.
