sports science

was just wondering if anyone on here has done a sports science course and if so i would like to ask if the course has alot to do with biology.

Im not very good at biology at alevel but im interested in applying for sports science in john moores.

However i do excel in areas of alevel biology concerning muscles and oxygen delivery.

My problem is that i lack interest in the biology of plants and biochemistry which makes my grade fall to Ds and Es

I don't do this course but have applied for it and don't study biology so this may mean that there is not a lot of biology involves only the parts which you cover in sport a level

Not what you're probably thinking of, from what you've said about oxygen delivery I think you'll be fine. No all I had was gcse's
