In order for students to be prepared for the A-Level (Advanced Level) H2 Chemistry Exams, it is important to understand the syllabus content by topics as well as the specific learning outcomes. This will allow the student a birds-eye view of what is required for him/her to do well. Let’s take a quick look at the subject content:

In this chemistry blogsite which is meant for A-Levels H2 Chemistry (as well as H1 Chemistry), all our blog post discussions will be based on the above topical terms. As such, you can do a search for specific topic via the search bar or category located on the right hand side of this blog.
For specific learning outcomes per topic, please go to Singapore Examination and Assessment Board (SEAB) to download a copy of the syllabus requirements.
Note:
A-Levels and Integrated Programme (IP) Chemistry students taking the GCE A-Level H2 Chemistry in Singapore will be assumed to have knowledge and understanding of Chemistry at GCE O-Level (or other equivalents), as a single subject (Pure Chemistry subject code: 5072) or as part of a balanced science course i.e. Combine Science (Chemistry/Biology or Chemistry/Physics).
If you need to brush-up your GCE O-Level Chemistry knowledge, please go to my O-Level Chemistry Blog SimpleChemConcepts.com that was started 3 years ago.
