Could anyone confirm the A-Level entry requirements for Sports Science at Loughborough? If your predicted grades meet the entry requirements but you don’t have a grade 6 in Science, would that prevent you from receiving an offer

Unfortunately yes - GCSE requirements are mandatory and the website states:
GCSE Science Grade 6
There is no flexibility in this requirement.

Has anyone got any offers from loughborough for sports science with a placement year?
I just got one but the offer is A*AA, but the entry requirement range on the lboro website is A*AA-AAA, so just wondering why I got the higher end of the offer and if anyone else has?

I am waiting for an offer from Loughborough - so congrats!
The higher end might be due to not having the subjects they are looking for?

I do A Level Biology, Psychology and PE, so all 3 are ones they’re looking for, so that’s why I wanted to know if anyone else got that offer?
But good luck for your offers!!

Thanks. Well, I think it might be because you don't have maths then?
Can you tell me when you submitted your application and when you heard back?
I submitted just before Christmas.
