Chemistry for You

Product Information

A tuition fee loan is available from the UK government to cover course fees in full for Home (UK, Irish nationals and other eligible students with UK citizens' rights - see below*) students undertaking their first undergraduate degree**, so you don’t need to pay your course fees up front. The following information gives specific details for students applying for this course. Written test Chemical scientists have a higher employment rate than students of other subjects, and they tend to be paid more too ­– up to 15 per cent higher in some cases! Over 70 per cent of chemistry students will enter a professional or managerial role when they have finished their studies and double the UK average go on to further study. * For courses starting on or after 1 August 2021, the UK government has confirmed that EU, other EEA, and Swiss Nationals will be eligible for student finance from the UK government if they have UK citizens’ rights (i.e. if they have pre-settled or settled status, or if they are an Irish citizen covered by the Common Travel Area arrangement). The support you can access from the government will depend on your residency status.

Chemistry for You : Fifth Edition for All GCSE Examinations

A degree is not the only route into a career in chemistry. There are also many options for work-based learning, and many providers offer chemistry-related apprenticeships. If you’re not sure university is right for you, but you love chemistry, an apprenticeship or a degree apprenticeship may suit you perfectly. There are opportunities for lab technicians and laboratory scientists – you’ll be applying straight to the company offering the apprenticeship, and competition can be high, so make sure you do your research and get your application in early. To hear more about our undergraduate Teaching Labs, visit our video: Chemistry Teaching Laboratory. Work placements/international opportunities I would have liked the methyl orange indicator pictures to be updated as the colour changes could be clearer, otherwise my only criticism is the book has been released after schools have made their investments for the new curriculum. The likelihood of obtaining a class set of these books now is greatly reduced.College tutorials are central to teaching at Oxford. Typically, they take place in your college and are led by your academic tutor(s) who teach as well as do their own research. Students will also receive teaching in a variety of other ways, depending on the course. This will include lectures and classes, and may include laboratory work and fieldwork. However, tutorials offer a level of personalised attention from academic experts unavailable at most universities. Candidates are required to have Chemistry and Mathematics to A-level, Advanced Higher, or Higher Level in the IB or any other equivalent. Covering all GCSE specifications, this tried and tested series has been fully updated to match the new (9-1) GCSE Chemistry specifications, as well as international specifications. With a focus on science, concepts develop naturally, engaging students and enabling them to get a thorough understanding of Chemistry. Chemistry for You has been updated for the 2016 (9–1) GCSE chemistry and international specifications. Having clung on to my 2001 copy as a lifeline to introduce essential chemical concepts throughout my teaching career, I welcome the 5 th edition with open arms. Additional sections give you help on: Maths skills required in the new specifications, practical skills to be tested in your written examinations, study skills, revision and exam technique, thinking about a career in Biology.

If your personal or educational circumstances have meant you are unlikely to achieve the grades listed above for undergraduate study, but you still have a strong interest in the subject, then applying for Chemistry with a Foundation Year might be right for you. These are broadly based, and include topics such as Biological Chemistry and Physics, which are presented in a chemical context. Please select 'see course data' on the following course option to view the full Unistats data for Chemistry.Scottish Highers– Entry requirements for Highers (the most common qualification) range from BBCCC to AAAAB, with universities or colleges most frequently requiring AABBB. Occasionally, universities ask for Advanced Highers to supplement Highers. If Advanced Highers are requested, universities or colleges typically ask for AB. The fourth year (Part II) of the course involves full-time work within an established research group, which offers the possibility for a few students to spend time at laboratories in industry or at universities abroad. A levels– Entry requirements range from BCC to AAA, with the universities and colleges most commonly asking for AAB. Whichever chemistry-related course you choose, you’ll have in-depth training on the subject matter, be required to conduct individual study and, of course, you’ll be spending time in the lab. Key points are clearly highlighted with useful end-of-chapter summaries, and a friendly reading level throughout

Tutors are looking for evidence of academic excellence and motivation, as well as the potential for advanced study, a capacity to analyse, explain and apply current knowledge, and a readiness to have a go at problems even when you cannot see how. When it comes to showing that you’re the right type of student for chemistry, in your personal statement or application you’ll want to demonstrate skills in analytical thinking, problem-solving, attention to detail, and research. If you know which type of chemistry you’re particularly interested in, let it show, as this will help set you apart from other candidates.
