Philosophy and Physics MA (Hons)

B,B,B,B

Applicants who achieve BBBB or better (to include Mathematics and Physics) over S4 and S5 are likely to be made an offer of admission. This may be unconditional or it may be conditional, dependent upon academic profile. Good performance in additional Highers / Advanced Highers may be required. Note: we do not double count a Higher and Advanced Higher in the same subject, but we do consider that a B at Adv Higher is equivalent to an A grade at Higher National 5 at grades C or above in English, Mathematics (but not Applications of Mathematics) and in either Chemistry or Physics.
