Only two Universities I can go to..

So there's only really two options that I can go for in terms of studying an Undergraduate degree in Biomedical Sciences and that is Birmingham City and Keele. Obviously, having two choices would mean I have to work hard and stand out from the crowd so that I get a place at University.

I don't really have the greatest qualifications, other Biomedical Science degrees often require A-levels or Level 3 BTEC in Applied Sciences in conjunction with one or two A-levels which is very frustrating!!

Anyone in a similar situation or can offer any advice?

Many thanks!!

Do you not have A-Levels? Or are they just not very good grades?

You haven't really explained why these are the only two possibilities.

Most Biomed Sci degrees ask for a Level 3 Diploma in Applied Sciences and A-levels combined rather than the qualification I have which is a Level 3 Diploma in Health Science and Social Care with no A-levels. Or the uni's ask for strictly A-levels. I have to be realistic with the grades I have

A lot of units won't list what specific BTEC subject you need, a lot of the time they put BTEC with a certain grade in a relevant subject

Look out for these then with a good PS I'm sure your Health and Social care BTEC would be accepted a lot more places, I read online that someone got into Oxford to study Experimental Psychology with a Health and Social care BTEC a few years ago, so I'm sure its possible for you to get into Biomed at a lot more than just 2 unis

For example:

Surrey (6th in the UK for Biological sciences) ask for Applied Science but say to contact them if you're taking a different BTEC.

Durham (5th for Bio Sciences) do a 4 year Biological Science degree with foundation year you could apply for

Bath (14th for Bio Sciences) ask for Applied Science but say you can contact them to discuss if your BTEC units would be suitable

Royal Holloway require A level Chemistry by default but then say DDD in either Applied Science or Health and Social care - plus grade C in Chemistry. Which is promising for other unis who don't have the Chem requirement
