| and | Paper 4: Special Study in Biology - the examination consists of written course-work assignments and practical experiments together with the submission of a research report equivalent in length to 7,000 words. |
| (i) | From Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos one of the following, the subject chosen being the subject studied for the Preliminary Examination for the Education Studies Tripos: | |
| Chemistry A (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) | ||
| Chemistry B (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) | ||

| Chemistry (the written paper and the submission of practical note-books) | ||
| Physics (the written paper and the submission of practical note-books) |
By retitling this subject as Biological Sciences and by introducing a new subject Physical Sciences as follows:
| A candidate wishing to offer a single paper in Physical Sciences may offer the following option: | ||
| (a) one of the two papers in History and Philosophy of Science from Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos. | ||
| A candidate wishing to offer two papers in Physical Sciences may offer one of the following options: | ||
| (a) | From Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos one of the following:
Advanced Physics (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) Physics (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) Chemistry A (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) Chemistry B (both written papers and the submission of practical note-books) provided that the candidate may not choose a subject studied for either Part I of the Education Studies Tripos or Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos. (If Chemistry A has been offered for either Part I of the Education Studies Tripos or Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos, then the candidate may offer Chemistry B or Physics from Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos. If Physics has been offered for either Part I of the Education Studies Tripos or Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos, then the candidate may offer Advanced Physics, Chemistry A or Chemistry B from Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos); | |
| or | (b) | one of the following Half Subjects from the subject Physical Sciences from Part II of the Natural Sciences Tripos:
Chemistry (two papers of one and a half hours' duration and the submission of note-books of further work) Experimental and Theoretical Physics (one two-hour paper, one paper of one and a half hours' duration, and three units of further work) |
| or | (c) | History and Philosophy of Science (both written papers) from Part IB of the Natural Sciences Tripos. |
