The Student Room Group

A Levels that are needed for Pharmacy

I am currently studying Biology, Chemistry and Business Studies. I was told that i should switch Business with Economics because no Russel Group universities would accept me for Pharmacy. Apparently Business is a watered down and easier version of Economics. I am already doing two difficult a levels so i don't want to do economics. Has anyone gotten into a Russel Group university for pharmacy with taking Business?

It's RUSSELL group. Why can literally no-one who obsesses about this group of universities actually spell it!

Apparently - no. Business is a different A level to economics, not a 'watered-down version'. Where did you get that from - it sounds like something an old person would say. You need three A levels, usually including chemistry and often one other science/maths.

No. They need three A levels, not two.

I do not obsess over those universities. I was just asking about them because I was told that I wouldn’t be able to get into them. I don’t believe that business is a watered down version of economics, that is just what I’ve heard. People definitely do say business is easier and more watered down than economics. You’re response definitely came of as rude, even though I was just asking a genuine question.
