Religion and Philosophy
at Christ'S College Finchley, London · college
What the college says
Philosophy comes from the Greek terms meaning ‘love of wisdom’ and demonstrates how the course will begin from the earliest foundations of Western Philosophy, that of the Ancient Greek culture, to the contemporary era. This is a highly challenging A-Level which pushes the learner to think at ever higher abilities; to question the perceived certainties of our world and society. Who is it for? This A-Level is an ideal course to study for those interested in pursuing high level thinking and developing their analytical skills. It requires individuals who are prepared to ‘think outside the box’; to challenge views and have their own views challenged. It is an arts & humanities A-Level, but due to the examination of rationalism and empiricism, it is highly useful for those pursuing careers related to the sciences, for example Medicine, biological research or physics. Where does it lead? The abilities which will be nurtured throughout the term of study are excellent preparation for university study and beyond. The analytical nature of the units develop high level thinking which is vital for careers in management, academic research or law, whilst the content and rigorous academic nature of the A-level is good preparation for any BMAT examinations for university.
