Frequently Asked Questions
Is A Level Biology hard?
Yes, but it's manageable. The jump from GCSE is noticeable. The syllabus is significantly bigger and the concepts go deeper. However, with consistent revision using active recall, rather than passive reading, these concepts will stick, and you have every chance of hitting a top grade.
Can you do A Level Biology without GCSE Biology?
Technically, yes. But it's tough going. Most schools and colleges will ask for at least a grade 6 in GCSE Biology (or grade 6-6 in Combined Science) before they'll let you onto the course. That's because A Level Biology picks up where GCSE leaves off, and the jump in content and complexity is significant.
