The Chemistry course covers a wide range of topics, including organic, quantitative and periodic trends in addition to a wide range of physical chemistry topics. It is split into three papers: The first paper covers physical chemistry and periodic trends delving into energetics, thermodynamics and equilibrium. The second paper covers organic synthesis and analysis, encompassing a wide range of spectroscopic techniques as well as an extensive look into hydrocarbons and their properties. The third paper is synoptic and includes an element of practical techniques covered across the two year course. A study of Chemistry gives you a range of transferrable skills, including analysis, practical and written communication. It opens doors to many different professions, as varied as medicine, engineering and law and is a highly academic subject sought after by prestigious universities for a huge number of courses.
