drawn to the footnote on approval of courses PART A

I. The subjects of the Science course, Part A, are set out in Regulation XVI, Section 3 in six groups, I, II, IIIA, IIIB, IV, V.

2. A course usually consists of seven or eight subjects and must include four subjects from Group I and at least one from Groups IIIA or IV. In addition, one of Science French, Science German and Science Russian must be taken in the First or Second Year of the course unless an appropriate School Leaving Language or higher has been passed.

3. The choice of subjects for a course must comply with the table of pre- requisites ; moreover, the three parts of any one subject must be taken in separate years and Part I of a subject must precede Part II, which must precede Part III.

The . following table sets out recommended courses in Part A in the various schools, but other courses may be approved. Optional additional subjects are indicated in brackets.

PART B .

1. The subjects of the Science course, Part B, are set out in Regulation XVI, Section 13.

2. The course is divided into two divisions, the first consisting of Chemistry and Physics and five other subjects ; the second consisting of a large range of subjects set out in sub-divisions.

3. The choice of subjects for a course must comply with the table of pre- requisites; moreover, the two parts of any one subject must be taken in separate years and Part I of a subject must precede Part I.

lAnother Group I subject may be substituted for Mathematics where the candidate has passed in General Mathematics or Calculus and Applied Mathematics at Matriculation standard.

9If Chemistry II is not taken some extra reading in physical chemistry would be necessary.

•Students should take Chemistry IA if Chemistry II or Physics II is to be taken later in the course, otherwise Chemistry IB.

•If Mining I is selected with Surveying I an additional Group II subject must be included hi the course.

',Requires Pure Maths. II as a pre-requisite in the Second Year.

•For candidates who have passed in General Mathematics or Calculus and Applied Mathe- maties at Matriculation standard.

°For candidates who have NOT passed in General Mathematics or Calculus and Applied Mathematics at Matriculation standard.
