This course is for students who want to continue studying biology after GCSE. You will already be familiar with some of the topics but the A level will give you the chance to study these and some new ones, in much greater depth. You might be choosing biology because you're headed for a healthcare or scientific career, though it will give you a set of skills that can be used in a wide range of non-scientific careers too. This course links well with most other A level subjects but particularly with those such as Chemistry, Physics, Maths, Geography and Psychology.
GCSE Grade 6 in Biology or Grade 6,6 in Combined Science and Grade 6 in Mathematics.
Assessment is through final examination at the end of the course. There will be 3 exam papers each of 2 hours duration. You will also undertake a minimum of 12 teacher assessed practicals during the course.
