Chemistry at A Level is a rich, interactive course that helps students develop theoretical and practical skills designed to provide a solid grounding for studying Chemistry at university. Students will be challenged to gain technical skills that help them to analyse experimental data and explore both traditional and modern theoretical concepts. Students are taught practical skills integrated with theoretical subjects and are examined externally at the end of the course. The two year course is comprised of 6 topics. The topics are: - Development of practical skills in chemistry - Foundations in chemistry - The Periodic Table and energy - Core organic chemistry - Physical chemistry and the transition elements - Organic chemistry and analysis.
Students should have obtained a minimum of a grade 6 in Chemistry or Double Award Science.
A Level students will sit three papers: Paper 1 Periodic table, elements and physical chemistry 2 hours 15 minutes 100 marks 37% of A Level Paper 2 Synthesis and analytical techniques 2 hours 15 minutes 100 marks 37% of A Level Paper 3 Unified chemistry 1 hour 30 minutes 70 marks 26% of A Level
