Why study Chemistry? As the quote above states, Chemistry is the study of all materials and their interaction with other materials. The subject can be split into four main groups, inorganic chemistry the study of metals and subsequent compounds, organic chemistry the study of the chemistry of carbon compounds including biochemical processes, physical chemistry where the physics side of chemistry is studied considering quantitative aspects and chemical analysis. The course considers a wide range of the above topics looking at theory as well as the application of that theory. Chemistry is a must for those wishing to embark on a medical degree whether this is medicine, veterinary science or dentistry. It can also lead into many engineering pathways such as Chemical Engineering or Biochemical Engineering. Chemistry can also lead to chemical and medicine research, environmental science as well as the study of biological chemistry in disciplines such as Biochemistry Please see Course Directory for topics to be studied.
GCSE Grade 7 or 8-7 Chemistry or Combined Science.
External Assessment: Paper 1 – Part A – MCQ. Part B – Data-based questions and questions on experimental work 90 mins - 36% Paper 2 – Short answer and longer answer questions on all topics taught 90 mins - 44% Internal Assessment This is carried out in Year 12 in the summer – 20%
