Biology is one of the most popular A Level subjects in the country, attracting students studying a wide range of other subjects. It involves the study of a wide range of exciting topics from molecular biology to the study of ecosystems and from microorganisms to mammoths. Biology is never far from the headlines either. Did you know that in Kenya 350 people die from AIDS every day and that in South East Asia the skies are dark with smoke as the last Bornean rainforests are burned to grow oil palms? You will find Biology a very rewarding and challenging course which will develop many of the skills essential for a successful career.
