Cambridge International AS & A Level Chemistry (9701) has 37 syllabus topics across physical, inorganic and organic chemistry and analysis, assessed through five papers. AS Level is the first half of the course and covers topics 1 to 22. The full A Level adds topics 23 to 37 and two more papers. It is for students who have finished IGCSE or O Level Chemistry and want a base for university chemistry or a related subject. We teach it online, one to one, for students across Saudi Arabia.
For students taking AS Level only, or AS in Year 1 of a two-year A Level. They study topics 1 to 22 and sit Papers 1, 2 and 3 in the same exam series, with grades a to e. We concentrate on moles, bonding, energetics, equilibria, kinetics and early organic topics, because the A Level builds on them.
For students going on to the full A Level, over two years with the AS result carried forward, or in one series. Grades run from A* to E. Year 2 adds topics 23 to 37, including entropy, transition elements, arenes, amides and NMR.

Five papers, combined into three routes.
Cambridge assesses 9701 with five papers.
AS Level is Papers 1, 2 and 3. A Level is all five, in one series or staged over two years. Exams run in June and November, and in March for schools in India.
Students do Paper 3 practical work in their school lab. TutorDock teaches online and does not run lab practicals. Our lessons cover the written skills behind Papers 3 and 5: tables, graphs, significant figures, and evaluating methods and errors.
Cambridge does not publish a list of difficult topics, so this is general advice, not an official ranking: topics that mix calculation with multi-step reasoning, such as equilibria, energetics, electrochemistry, kinetics and organic synthesis, usually need the most practice.
Cambridge recommends IGCSE or O Level Chemistry (or equivalent Co-ordinated Science) before 9701. For that stage, see our Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) page. New to 9701? Read our complete guide to the papers, topics and how to prepare. See also our A Level Chemistry tutor in Saudi Arabia page.
Every lesson is one to one and planned around the student's route: AS only, staged A Level or full A Level. We first find which AS topics are not yet secure, because Paper 4 also expects AS knowledge. Book a free trial class and tell us your route and the topic you need most.
Practice mixes multiple-choice, structured calculations and written explanations. Feedback focuses on units, significant figures (the same as, or one more than, the least precise data), showing every stage of working, and command words such as explain and deduce.
Timed practice matches each paper, from the 1 hour 15 minute Papers 1, 2 and 5 to the 2 hour Paper 4. Students also learn to use the Qualitative analysis notes printed in Paper 3 and to present data and observations clearly.
Our Cambridge AS & A Level Chemistry (9701) tutoring covers all 37 syllabus topics: 1 to 22 for AS Level, with 23 to 37 added for the full A Level.

Cambridge International AS & A Level Chemistry (9701) has 37 syllabus topics in physical, inorganic and organic chemistry and analysis, assessed through five papers. AS Level (topics 1 to 22) is the first half of the A Level course.
Paper 3 (2 hours, 40 marks) is a timetabled, laboratory-based practical test taken in a school lab. Paper 5 (1 hour 15 minutes, 30 marks) is written, with no lab work. It tests planning, analysis and evaluation. TutorDock teaches online and does not run lab practicals, but our lessons help with the tables, graphs, calculations and evaluation both papers reward.
AS Level is Papers 1, 2 and 3 on topics 1 to 22, with grades a to e. A Level adds Papers 4 and 5 and topics 23 to 37, with grades A* to E. Students can sit all five papers in one series, or take AS in Year 1 and Papers 4 and 5 in Year 2, with the AS result carried forward under Cambridge's rules. The school decides the entries.
Yes. We offer one-to-one online tutoring for students across Saudi Arabia, with support for AS Level, full A Level, calculations, revision and exam preparation.
