Hi @hello24bye

I hope you're doing well, and thank you so much for your question about the MPharm programme.

I'm afraid I'm not completely sure about which specific BTEC units are required for this course. I would suggest potentially listening all of the units that you did to make sure all are covered.

I would also recommend contacting the University of Reading to ask about this. You can either do this via the Ask A Question form, or by emailing [email protected]. Hopefully they will be able to give you a more specific answer to this question.

I hope this has been helpful! Please just let us know if you have any more questions.

Hattie😊

hello, I had the same question and emailed them and they replied with this:

Applicants for Pharmacy who are studying the BTEC Level 3 Applied Science qualification need to have studied the following 4 units; if these four units are not being studied, applicants will need to apply for MPharm Pharmacy with Preparatory Year as they won't be considered for main programme.
13 - Applications of Inorganic Chemistry
14 - Applications of Organic Chemistry
18 - Industrial Chemical Reactions
19 - Practical Chemical Analysis

Hi, thanks for your reply
In my course I’ve only studied unit 14 and non of the others and I still haven’t heard back anything for them so I don’t know what their decisions will be.

you have to list all the units you are/ will study for the btec course. If you google it it should come up with the unit name and number . https://qualifications.pearson.com/content/dam/pdf/BTEC-Nationals/Applied-Science/2016/specification-and-sample-assessments/BTEC-L3-Nat-ExtDip-in-Applied-Science-Spec.pdf
