Biology is a popular subject taken by students with a wide variety of interests. It is the subject of the future. If you want to know the facts behind GMOs, human cloning and global warming, this is the subject to study. Instead of reading the hype, be informed! This course includes a significant amount of maths and biochemistry; it is a challenging and rewarding subject. Our advice is that GCSE Applied Science is not suitable preparation for A-level Biology.
