Hi, my name is Krishita. I grew up in the UK for my whole life then moved to India at the age of 15. Now I'm 16 and in the 2nd year of college (intermediate). I took the BIPC course which consists of Bio, Chem and Phy so you can already guess that I want to be a doctor. The transition from the UK to India was rough especially academically, it is so much more competitive here and academically challenging. Sp what I want to know is that of I wanted to go back to the UK to do Uni, what grades or qualifications do I need and which exams do I need to write? If anyone has any more tips or info around this topic or their own experience, please do share I would love to hear!

Hi @kd_24x

First off, well done for continuing to push through during such a big transition! I’m not 100% sure about all the requirements, but I’d recommend contacting the international admissions team at the UK university you’re interested in. They’ll be able to give you the most accurate information based on your current qualifications. You can also check the UCAS website for general guidance about applying to UK universities from abroad.
I hope that helps a bit and good luck with everything!

Each university will say what qualifications you need.
