MChemA Examination

The examination is in three parts.

Part A is a three-hour examination paper on the theory of general analytical chemistry.
Part B covers the applications of analytical chemistry and comprises two three-hour papers.
Part C provides the opportunity for you to demonstrate specific abilities that you possess in the application of the core knowledge and an opportunity to demonstrate your career experience.

For Part C, you submit a Portfolio of Evidence to the RSC for formal assessment by the Examiners. If the Portfolio is deemed satisfactory, you may proceed to the one-day practical examination.
