You can take a written paper instead of the practical coursework module, i think. (I'm pretty sure that applies for OCR papers.) Check out the website.
Heck no, I find chemistry a lot easier that Biology. There is a ton of information you need to revise and the modules just go on and on. The workload is huge - if you understand the concepts in chemistry once then that's fine.

At A2 the essays and extended prose are a bit of a bugger. Although biology is tougher, in terms of more content, the grade boundaries for it are much lower than that of chemistry. For example this january you needed 38/60 for an A for unit 2b biology edexcel. Chemistry unit 2 was way higher, something like 46, I can't remember exactly.
What are your plans? Missing labwork puts a big hole in your pre-university training - admissions tutors will spot it straight away.
No. Bloody hell why do you keep asking these questions?
For chemistry you can have a practical paper instead of c/w, true. But you need experience of practicals to be able to apply your knowledge.. you know they'll ask you to design and impliment a titration, how do you think about this clearly if you've never done a titration? Moreover self teaching yourself science is going to be hard work, and a test of concentration.

Is there any science a levels which do not require laboratory experiments supervised for coursework etc. Ideally ones you can do via home study without going into a school to be supervised
Sports Science; social science etc.
