Is Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) a good fit for high school students in Grades 9-12?
Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) is a good fit for students in grades 9-12 who are interested in mole calculations and acid-base reactions. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make topic question sets with scored answers and a calculation notebook with corrected working.
Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) is organized into 12 official topics: after states of matter, atomic structure, and stoichiometry come electrochemistry, energetics, chemical reactions, acids, bases, and salts, the periodic table and metals, environmental and organic chemistry, and experimental techniques. Students begin at the topic that fits their school progress and the time before the exam, found with a short diagnostic, then work through topic questions and rewrite any wrong solution with its cause noted. Alongside the score, the student builds the academic evidence an application can use: how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.

How can I explain this course to my child?
If you want to understand the important ideas behind mole calculations instead of memorizing answers, Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) connects acid-base reactions to exam-ready reasoning and a record of how you fixed mistakes.
Which interests suggest this course?
- mole calculations
- acid-base reactions
- organic chemistry
What does the student finish?Topic question sets with scored answers and a calculation notebook with corrected working.
Is this a good fit?
A strong fit for students interested in biology, medicine, public health, chemistry, psychology, or environmental science.
Current study of, or planned preparation for, Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620).
A short diagnostic review sets the starting point.
Progress depends on regular practice and acting on feedback.
What will my child learn?
- Use the particle model to explain changes of state and compare atomic structure and bonding.
- Write formulas and equations and calculate reacting amounts and concentrations with the mole.
- Apply electrolysis, energy changes, rates, equilibrium, and redox to practical situations.
- Explain periodic trends, metal reactivity, organic reactions, and methods for identifying substances.
Which units does the official course cover?
- 1States of Matter
The particle model of solids, liquids, and gases, changes of state, diffusion, and changes in gas volume.
- 2Atoms, Elements and Compounds
Atomic structure and isotopes, ionic and covalent bonding, giant structures, and metallic bonding.
- 3Stoichiometry
Formulas and equations, relative masses, the mole and concentration, and yield and purity calculations.
- 4Electrochemistry
How electrolysis works, the products at each electrode, and hydrogen fuel cells.
- 5Chemical Energetics
Exothermic and endothermic reactions, reaction pathway diagrams, and energy changes from bond energies.
- 6Chemical Reactions
Physical and chemical change, factors that affect rate, reversible reactions and equilibrium, and redox.
- 7Acids, Bases and Salts
The properties of acids and bases, types of oxides, and how salts are prepared.
- 8The Periodic Table
How the table is arranged, Group I and Group VII elements, transition elements, and noble gases.
- 9Metals
Properties of metals and alloys, the reactivity series, corrosion and rust prevention, and extraction.
- 10Chemistry of the Environment
Water treatment, fertilizers, the composition of air and air pollution, and climate change.
- 11Organic Chemistry
Naming, fuels, alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, and polymers.
- 12Experimental Techniques and Chemical Analysis
Apparatus, acid-base titration, chromatography, separation and purification, and tests for ions and gases.
What counts as useful evidence?
Topic question sets with scored answers and a calculation notebook with corrected working.
What should an admissions reader be able to see?
Alongside the score, the student builds the academic evidence an application can use: how they applied a core idea, why an answer failed, and how they revised it.
Useful evidence may include a reproducible analysis, research notebook, scientific explanation, or tested model. The student must be able to explain the work and its limits.
The evidence an application reads is what the student understood, completed, and can explain.

Questions parents search before choosing this course
Is Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) a good fit for high school students in Grades 9-12?
Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) is a good fit for students in grades 9-12 who are interested in mole calculations and acid-base reactions. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make topic question sets with scored answers and a calculation notebook with corrected working.
Can my child take Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) online or in person, one-to-one or in a small group?
Yes. CIT offers online and in-person lessons at its Apgujeong academy in Gangnam, Seoul, with one-to-one and small-group options. A readiness consultation confirms the available format and starting point for the course.
Does my child need prior subject knowledge or coding experience for Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620)?
Current study of, or planned preparation for, Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620). A short diagnostic review sets the starting point. Progress depends on regular practice and acting on feedback.
What will my child make or practice in Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620)?
The main evidence is topic question sets with scored answers and a calculation notebook with corrected working. Students also document decisions, tests, feedback, and limits in age-appropriate language.
How does Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) exam preparation work?
CIT starts with a short diagnostic, then works through the units in order, from States of Matter to Experimental Techniques and Chemical Analysis, reviewing errors and improving exam-style responses. Practice is adapted to the student's current syllabus and readiness.
How are the schedule and tuition for Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry (0620) determined?
CIT confirms the student's readiness, goal, location, class size, and current availability before recommending a course plan. The consultation and level check are free; tuition is explained before enrollment.
When should a student start?
The exam date is set by the school or the exam board, so the time left decides how many units the student can cover and how much practice fits. CIT checks the remaining weeks first, then proposes a starting unit.
At first my child did not want to go, because it was a weekend class. After the lesson they said it had been fun. Hearing that they ask about anything they do not understand and take part on their own put me at ease as a parent.
