The new science GCSE options seem confusing. Can’t I take just one science GCSE?
You have several options at GCSE. You can take Core Science along with either Additional General Science or Additional Applied Science. Alternatively you can take three separate sciences – chemistry, physics and biology – or the Applied Science Double Award. If you’d like to continue with science after your GCSEs, then you should look at doing one of the second two options. You can ask your teachers or careers adviser for more information or go to: GCSE science options.
