A Level Chemistry

The A Level Chemistry course builds on the skills acquired at Cambridge IGCSE (or an equivalent) level. The course includes the main theoretical concepts fundamental to the subject, some current applications of chemistry, and a strong emphasis on advanced practical skills. Practical skills are assessed in a timetabled practical examination.

The emphasis throughout is on understanding concepts and applying chemistry ideas in new contexts, as well as building on current knowledge. The course encourages creative thinking and problem-solving skills, which can be used in any future career path. Cambridge International AS Level Chemistry is ideal for students who want to study chemistry or a variety of related subjects at university, as well as to follow a career in science.
