What this document is
The Advanced Higher Chemistry Course Specification, published under course code C713 77, is one of the subject documents the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) issues within Scotland's National Qualifications framework. It defines what an Advanced Higher Chemistry course must cover, how it is structured across its component units, and how it is assessed, giving schools and colleges a common basis for delivering the qualification.
Advanced Higher is the most advanced level SQA offers in secondary Chemistry, generally studied after Higher Chemistry and used by universities as an entry qualification or for exemptions from first-year coursework. Like SQA's other course documents, the specification is revised from time to time, so the course code alone does not guarantee that an older downloaded copy still matches the version currently in use.
Readers looking for the current specification, along with related unit and assessment-support material, can find it through SQA's Chemistry subject overview, which covers National 4 through Advanced Higher Chemistry in one place.
