Well, what does it say on their website for entry requirements. Do they ask for specific grades for certain a levels, if not then all you need is to be predicted their minimum requirements.

It says this:
BBC including biology (or human biology) and chemistry

So.....

So in that context it's only asking you to have the biology and chemistry a levels but not specifying for chemistry to have a certain grade. As long as you apply with achieved or predicted grades that meets the minimum requirements or above then you can apply (as well as meeting contextual criteria of course). Having spoken to them a while ago about whether they give an applicant with achieved grades an advantage, they do not and they don't look at your a levels whether achieved or predicted any further after making sure you meet minimum requirements. They use your total point score of ucat and gcses in deciding who to interview. Hope that helps

Yesssss thank you so much 😊. I've been stressing about this all day (got my predicted for Chem today) but I feel so much better now. I meet the contextual criteria and I've scored 40/58 so hopefully I'm good 🤞
You're a real g.

we actually say this:

“GCE Advanced Levels: BBC, to include Biology (or Human Biology) and Chemistry at grade B (a pass is required in science practical tests, where assessed separately). The third grade can be in any subject except Citizenship Studies, Critical Thinking, General Studies and Global Perspectives.“

so a grade B in Chemistry is required.
