How To Survive A Level Chemistry

Nowadays, people have so much worry when dealing with A level chemistry. The objective of this article, then, is to help you showing a few things needed, especially before someone starts his A-level.

• Learn a thing before starting 

Displacement reactions considered as a part of random bits of GCSE, although it is come up rarely. At this point, you need to look closely at it and try remembering the form of reactions occurred in such process. When it comes to GCSE, you have to expand so that you need to pay attention to more precise and larger detail. At this point, GCSE knowledge will be useful. Also, you need to think about your decision. Why you want to do A-level and so on.

• Exam board, is it needed? 

Sure it is. At first, you need to know which specification of A level chemistry to be learned. You may get this information from your teacher. Furthermore, you can access the information from the website of examination board. Be sure to have a check whether you are gaining correct specification, such as the correct subtype and year. Once you get the information, you need to complete two exam papers. Try to complete it within the time set.

• Be an active student 

A level chemistry will deal with so much reaction in terms of chemical process. In this way you need to think about the type of reaction you are dealing with. Mind you, you have to learn the equations, the states, the products, the reagents, the conditions; as these will occur in a new reaction. Take some note to get to know the axis. This has to be done once you see a graph. It is not only the axis, but also the units too. You also need to memorize its definition when a term had set.

Keep practicing when you are in the meeting with a new calculation. Don’t stop until you are a master. After covering the syllabus, don’t forget to remember everything and try to understand anything you have learned.

• Do more practice 

Be a practitioner once a week. It means that you need to do flame tests, titrations and any other identification related to AS. If you want to continue to A2, you should do AS stuff first. Doing many transition metal stuff and organic identification would be helpful. A lot of practice on A level chemistry will help you a lot before you start doing the actual exam.
