A,A,A

AAA in three A Level subjects: Grade A in Biology or Human Biology Grade A in Chemistry or another academic science-related subject (Physics, Mathematics, Geography, Geology, Psychology)* Grade A in a third subject of your choice** *If Chemistry is not offered at A-level, it must be offered at AS-level (at grade B or above). ** The third A level subject cannot be General studies or Critical Thinking, however, there is no third subject which is preferred by selectors or gives any special advantage in the selection process. Science and non-science subjects are treated equally for the third subject For Science A-levels in which practical assessment is separately graded, a “pass” grade will be required. Taking four subjects at A-level does not confer an advantage in the application process. Grades from three appropriate subjects only will be taken into consideration, according to the criteria shown above. Resit applicants would normally be expected to achieve A*AA (with the A* in any subject) and their UCAS form should indicate that they are expected to achieve these grades.
