The study of A level chemistry is a challenging and interesting course that builds on the knowledge gained at GCSE. You will study physical, inorganic and organic chemistry in greater depth, which will provide you with valuable skills that can be applied to a variety of different subjects. These include problem-solving, mathematical and practical skills. The chemistry qualification opens the door to a wide range of career options both in and out of a lab.
The course demands good levels of scientific aptitude and numeracy. Experience shows that students with a grade 7-9 in GCSE chemistry and mathematics, a minimum grade 7 in double award science or above, are more suited to the course.
