Hi guys, my sister is hoping to do chemistry. I will be tutoring her but I'm not sure which paper she needs to sit. Looking at the syllabus it says all students must sit paper 1. And for the last paper she will be doing paper 6 - the alternative to practical.
My query is about paper 2 and 3. It says paper 2 is appropriate for grades C-G, while paper 3 will be of a difficulty appropriate to the higher grades. When I did my exams we didn't have this so I am not sure which paper she needs to sit. Obviously she wants to get an A, so does this mean that you cannot get an A for paper 2? Or is this similar to say doing maths or further maths?
If we go with paper 2, will she still be able to get an A? If we go with paper 3 - does it mention that it's extended on the certificate?
She doesn't do chemistry at school only combined science, so paper 2 looks like a better option since she will be writing in nov 2010 and we only have the rest of this year to cover all the material.
