      Hi! It really depends on what sort of chemist you want to be! Different chemistry courses have different requirements but mine required AABB or AAAC at higher 🙂 I think all chemistry jobs require a minimum of a honours degree (typically 4 years) but some need a masters (5 years). The job I’m currently doing required a masters degree and PhD, which is a further qualification to a normal degree so it really depends on the job!
