To understand Chemistry is to understand the nature of science. Advances in Chemistry are behind technological innovations and medical breakthroughs throughout the world. A-level Chemistry is the ideal grounding to go on to study not only Chemistry itself, but also many other related subjects: for example, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Biochemistry or Biotechnology. It is essential if you wish to study Medicine, Pharmacology or Environmental Sciences.
Our offers of places into Year 12 are conditional upon a candidate achieving a minimum of six 8s or 9s at GCSE, including Grades 8 or 9 in the subjects proposed for study at A Level.
The course is assessed in three papers sat in Trinity term of Upper Sixth, and a Practical Endorsement that is assessed throughout the course and reported separately from the final A-level grade. The written papers are: Periodic Table, Elements and Physical Chemistry: 37% of A-Level; 2 hours 15 minutes Synthesis and Analytical Techniques: 37% of A-Level; 2 hours 15 minutes Unified Chemistry: 26% of A-Level; 1 hour 30 minutes All papers include synoptic assessment and questions relating to practical skills. All essential preparation materials will be given to pupils at induction.
