Transferring into Year 2 Biomedical Science at King's College London

Most top Unis will not allow transfers into their courses by folk with weak A levels and what they will consider as a first year at a weak Uni (Roehampton is not exactly known for science, therefore their first year is not 'equal to KCL' is it).

Roehampton is ranked 5th in London for Biomedical Sciences (The Guardian 2020 uni guide)

The Guardian league tables are based primarily on student satisfaction surveys, not academic rigour. That doesn't mean anything in this context.

Most top Unis will not allow transfers into their courses by folk with weak A levels and what they will consider as a first year at a weak Uni (Roehampton is not exactly known for science, therefore their first year is not 'equal to KCL' is it).

What are you building your information on then? Any references I can take a look at?

I'm not building a case; I'm dismantling yours. In any case, the Roehampton course does not cover the same topics in the first year as the one offered by KCL. It seems that KCL's teaches more material in the first year.

“A weak uni” this statement must have been built upon research and statistical facts.

As general guidance, applications for transfer into the second year will only be considered if you meet all of the requirements below:

> You have met the standard first year entry requirements for the course (such as A-levels or equivalent)

> You have studied the same or very similar modules to those on the first year of the course here at King’s in your first year. Please take some time to look at the course on our online prospectus, and see the ‘structure’ section for an idea of content. The content of your current degree needs to be very similar, so please satisfy yourself of your suitability before making a formal request to transfer.

> You have achieved or are achieving a 2:1/high 2:1 standard in your first year of your studies.
