Year 12 Chemistry (Level 2)

This course builds upon the knowledge and understanding of the chemistry developed in Level 1 Science, through both practical and theoretical application of the subject. The course covers various types of chemical reactions with an emphasis on the relevance of chemistry to everyday life and technology. Students will develop their scientific skills, challenge their thinking skills and become more effective scientific communicators.   

The course is designed to prepare students for Level 3 Chemistry and is a pre-requisite for many science based careers e.g. medicine, pharmacy, physiotherapy, dentistry, engineering, dietetics, nutrition, food technology, health and environmental science. Students intending to follow a science career should take Chemistry, Mathematics and either Physics and/or Biology.
