About WJEC GCSE Chemistry

WJEC is the dominant exam board in Wales and also operates Eduqas in England. Its specifications are used by the majority of Welsh secondary schools and many English schools seeking an alternative to AQA or Edexcel. WJEC mark schemes are characteristically direct and reward factual accuracy.

WJEC A-Level Chemistry covers similar content to OCR A with some structural differences in the Unit assessments. Practical skills are assessed differently to English specs, with a greater proportion of marks available in the written papers.
