What is double and triple science?
Double science is two gcses, so you get a core science and additional science gcse, triple science is where you get seperate gcses for biology, chemistry and physics so you get three gcses. So you would sit more exams if you did triple. Additional Science no longer exists as a GCSE.Click to see full answer….

Just so, what does double science mean?Double Award Science (also known as ‘Combined Science’ or ‘Trilogy’) is where students study all three sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) but end up with two GCSEs. They are awarded two GCSE grades based on their overall performance across all three science subjects. This system was introduced in 2006.Likewise, is GCSE Triple Science hard? If you do the three sciences separately you will do nine final exams and three controlled assessments, which can sound a bit scary. But if you choose to do double science GCSE and an extra GCSE subject you might end up with an even heavier workload. Similarly, you may ask, is Triple Science harder than double? Triple science isn’t harder than double. There’s just more to learn. I.e triple science is double science + 3 extra modules. But the extra modules aren’t harder.Is 4 3 a pass in GCSE science?Generally, a student who would have got an average grade A across science and additional science in 2017 would get grade 7-7 in GCSE Combined Science from 2018 onwards. In summer 2018 Ofqual introduced a new allowed grade 3-3 for combined science, and a full-width safety net grade 4-3 on combined science.
