AS Level Biology
Biology’s appeal is as a science at the forefront of some of the most exciting and sensitive issues in the news today. Are you intrigued when you hear about the medical developments in genetic engineering? Do you want to know why cells divide and what are the causes of cancer? Or are you concerned with the threat of global extinction and the devastation being caused by global warming? Studying Biology A Level will enable you to learn more about these issues of interest. Biology at A2 Level builds on the knowledge you will have already gained at AS Level. Achieving a full A Level in Biology can lead to a wide range of careers or degree courses. Recent students of Biology have gone on to study Biomedical Sciences, Pharmacy, Pharmacology, Biochemistry,
Biology, Zoology, and Microbiology amongst other rewarding subjects at university.
