What Are A Level Science Practicals?
For A Level Biology, Chemistry and Physics, students must complete a series of required practical activities assessed by their teacher or exam centre. These practicals are reported separately as the Practical Endorsement and are a mandatory requirement for university entry in science, medicine, dentistry, engineering and related fields.
Practical endorsements are graded as:
Pass
Fail
They do not affect the A Level grade but are required by most universities
