Surely biology and chemistry are needed then? For vet med it's almost always those two and for marine biology it's usually 2 sciences as well

Yeah, but that's not the same as chemistry or another science- which is required by most universities for vet med.

university’s will let you into veterinary courses with 3 distinction stars in animal welfare - such as bristol, harper adam’s etc. obviously university’s like cambridge and other such as liverpool won’t but some allow btecs combined with a levels.

Hi there!

Are those subjects all A-Levels? They don't seem to relate too much so I am just wondering what degree you are interested in, so I can guide you further? :smile:

Kind regards, Jenifer (Kingston rep)
