Hi there

Private tuition or self study is the only way I can think of in all honesty.

how would i do that? i mean that would i follow a course online or if i have the materials myself mostly to utilise them? secondly how would i sit the exam if i did self studying?

Hi again.

How you choose to learn is your choice. You could self study using a textbook/revision and past papers or have a tutor to teach you the content.

To sit the exam you'd need to find an exam centre and pay fees to sit your 3 Chemistry exams in the summer/autumn.


Hope this makes sense :smile:

£90-100 (From the link below for AQA). Unfortunately I don't know about practicals so it's best to ask exam centres.
