Biology (A Level)

UPDATED 20161025 11:18:07

Many students go on to complete Biology-based courses at University including Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Science, Physiology, Biochemistry or Biological Sciences. However a good grade in A level Biology will also be useful for non-science based courses such as Law and English. Course overview. If you enjoyed studying Biology at GCSE and are fascinated by living organisms, their structure and function then you will enjoy the depth of the A level Biology course. Many of the topics will be completely new and not really touched upon at GCSE. The course is content heavy, particularly when compared with the other science A levels. It also requires significant mathematical skills. Full course content can be found on the OCR website. You can expect to: • Develop research skills. • Develop strong practical skills. • Analyse information and draw conclusions from data. • Answer essay type questions. • Attend a field trip. • Present information. • Carry out group work.
