Default Imperial doesn't specify entry requirements!?
 
Imperial's course of Aeronautical Engineering has the following entry requirements for 2010 entry on the website:

"Our normal requirement for both courses is for three subjects to be passed at A level, or for two at A level and two at AS level. One A level pass must be in physics and another in a mathematics subject—pure mathematics or mathematics (pure and applied) but not statistics. We do not specify the third A level, which can be in any subject except general studies, but further mathematics is strongly encouraged."

What the hell does that mean? it just says for three subjects to be passed at A-level, a pass being an E? Now I obviously know the requirements will not be as simple as it's being stated, clearly a mere 3 passes would be a mile off but then I don't actually know the actual requirements...last year it was AAA but this year with the introduction of A* to many of Imperial's courses I need to know the actual requirements. Why is there so much ambiguity

Anybody know the requirements for 2010 entry?

The typical offer for all Engineering faculties at Imperial is AAA Maths, Physics and a third (relevant) subject (I strongly recommend further Maths). For some popular subjects (I don't think Aeronautical eng is included) they may ask all units A (or maybe an A* from now on)! Hope this helps!
