A levels and degrees

Hello, does anyone know if I could do a psychology degree with a levels History, Psychology and Business or would I have to take sciences like Biology & Chemistry?

Hiya! Most unis I could find count psychology A-level as an acceptable science and only look for one of your A-levels to be scientific, so you should be fine (:

Although, some very competitive unis like Cambridge will want you to have two maths/science related.

For the majority of universities, psychology will get you onto their course but at some of the top universities a “hard science” is required and at all universities biology would be helpful (looks quite good) and as there’s overlap with biology and psychology and biology opens other options, if you can take biology I would recommend it :smile:
