What the college says
Chemistry is the central science and overlaps other science areas. We build on skills from GCSE science and then throughout the course we emphasise the need to explain and understand things that happen either in the outside world or in a test tube! WHERE DOES IT LEAD? Chemistry is a valuable A Level for entry into a wide range of careers. Most of our A Level chemistry students enter higher education. It is essential that students considering Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Dentistry, Chemical Sciences and Forensic Science, study Chemistry, but many other degree courses view Chemistry as a desirable subject.
