Neuroscience related degrees without chemistry required

I’m currently looking for neuroscience related degrees I could apply for without having chemistry and the best options so far are Human neuroscience at UCL and Neuroscience & psychology at Kings College. Can anyone provide advice for which may be better or personal experience with either course.

Hi there,

While I don't have personal experience with either of these courses or universities, I just wanted to point out where you might find some!

Most university websites will have a 'Chat to a Student' feature, where you can search for students who are studying the course you are interested in. It can be useful to gain some insight from a current student who has been through it before, and they will have better knowledge than me that is specific to their university. Linked here is the website for KCL.

I hope this helps!

Glasgow is ranked very highly for neuroscience and for A Level they only require Biology or Chemistry so if you have bio it would be fine https://www.gla.ac.uk/undergraduate/degrees/neuroscience/#tab=entry

Glasgow University only asks for Biology or Chemistry, so if you have biology that is fine and that is for a BSC In Neuroscience
