The first cohort of the new A-levels in England received results along with an endorsement for practical work

This year, chemistry has overtaken history to take 4^th place in the most popular A-level subjects.

The results are receiving extra scrutiny this year as these are the first results since reforms in 2015 of 13 A-level subjects, including chemistry. The reformed A-level course is now linear with exams at the end of two years.
