Chemistry

Entry Requirements

Entry to the Sixth Form for all pupils is dependent upon achieving good GCSE results - normally 7 GCSEs at grade 6 or above (including Maths and English), with at least a 7 in your chosen subjects. We also ask prospective pupils joining us from other schools to provide a report from your current school confirming that you are a suitable candidate to sit A-levels and we invite you to come in for a short interview. Below is an overview of the admissions process into Sixth Form at Queen's. You could continue to study chemistry at degree level—either broadly or specialising in one area. Students studying A-level chemistry frequently go on to study degrees in chemistry, biology, pre-clinical medicine, dentistry, pharmacology and veterinary science. As a challenging A-level, you will need a grade of 7 or above in GCSE chemistry (or 7-7 for double award science) to be accepted on the course. As there is a significant mathematics content in the specification a grade 7 at GCSE mathematics is required.
