Course Description:
In Year 12, students begin their Advanced Level (A-Level) Science studies, completing AS Level in their chosen science subjects. The A-Level syllabus is more rigorous and prepares students for university-level STEM courses.
What You’ll Learn:
- Physics: Mechanics, materials, waves, electricity, particle physics.
- Chemistry: Atomic structure, energetics, kinetics, equilibria, organic chemistry fundamentals.
- Biology: Cell structure, biological molecules, enzymes, genetics, physiology, and ecosystems.
