Unfortunately it's pretty hard to quantify how difficult it is- once you meet the required grades it becomes more dependent on how you express yourself in the PS. Have you applied yet?

Best of luck with your applications if you're applying this year! x

Around what date can I expect a reply from St. Andrew's for Chemistry?

I got my reply at the start of February. Around that point I would expect them to start to come back. If I am not mistaken they have to respond by some time in march. It is no use worrying about it. I have friend who got theirs back early and some who did not get them till a month after mine.

Okay thanks! I’ll have to wait patiently then :smile:

Why are the requirements for chemistry lower than most of the other courses at St Andrews?

Normally it's just about how popular the course is. Like IR is super popular so has really high requirements, I guess Chemistry is slightly less popular.
