Chemistry is the study of the composition, structure, properties and change of the matter which makes up our world. You will study the world right down to its molecular and atomic structure, discovering more about the elements and compounds which surround us in our daily lives. Cooking is chemistry. Everything you can touch or taste or smell is a chemical. Chemistry explains why detergent works better in hot water and how one pain killer will be better than another if you’ve got a headache. It enables you to understand the world around you on a deeper level. Famous chemists include Nobel Prize winning Marie Curie who discovered Radium and Polonium, Louis Pasteur who created early vaccines for anthrax and rabies and Alfred Nobel who invented dynamite and went on to give his name to one of the most prestigious prizes in the world. This course will give you a great theoretical base, but will also cover the practical application of chemistry in our everyday lives. You will study this course alongside 2 or 3 other A Levels and you will be able to select your chosen subjects when you apply online. Topics include: - General chemistry - Inorganic chemistry - Organic chemistry - Physical chemistry - Analytical chemistry and many more advanced topics
5 or more GCSE grades 9-4 (including English Language and Maths) To study 3 A Levels you’ll need at least 5 GCSE’s at grades 9-4 including GCSE English at grade 4 or above and Maths at grade 5 or above To study 4 A Levels you’ll need at least 6 GCSE’s at grades 9-7 including GCSE English and Maths at grade 7 or above Grade 5 or above in GCSE Maths plus Grade 6 or above in GCSE Chemistry, Additional Science, or Science Trilogy. If you achieve Grade 5 in Maths you will also be enrolled onto a Core Maths qualification. If choosing Chemistry and not taking either Biology or Physics, discussion and approval by a chemistry tutor will be necessary. The following qualifications are NOT accepted: GCSE Applied Science GCSE Combined Science: Synergy BTEC Science
Three written papers of two hours duration.
