Gcse new specification triple science aqa

As I've already started revising for Gcse's (going into year 10) I've been using textbook mainly because the only spec I found for aqa science gcse was the double award (double science). Does anyone know where the spec is for triple science??? if so please send the link. Thank you xxxx

Sorry to bother you again, but it says 6 papers when i thought triple science was 9 papers. Will the content just be split more as it 9 papers not 6?


Check with your teacher its the correct specification. 6 papers for one GCSE is still a lot. To the best of my knowledge that is the correct one new spec from 2016. Whats on each paper is on the specification at a glance link.

Triple Science is a term for the three separate sciences - so you're being entered into three separate qualifications / subjects: biology (two exams, one award); chemistry (two exams, one award); and physics (two exams, one award).

For the specifications, see below.
Biology: http://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/science/gcse/biology-8461
Chemistry: http://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/science/gcse/chemistry-8462
Physics: http://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/science/gcse/physics-8463
