What the college says

This course is for students who want to continue studying Chemistry 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 chemistry because you are 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 Biology, Physics, Maths and Engineering.
