Hi so l'm doing an Access to higher education in science and my subjects within the course is chemistry, biology and physics. I'm 19 years old currently doing the course and l'll be 20 by the next academic year but I never completed my a levels due to things happening in my life during sixth form but I went back to education hoping to do pharmacy. I also checked the entry requirements and I wanted to add that I have a 5 in GCSE English language and a 4 in GCSE maths. Just wanted to know if it was possible for me
getting in it's my firm choice
Please help me guys

Access to HE Diploma (Science, Medicine, Medical Sciences, Health Sciences) with 30 Level 3 credits at Distinction in Science or Mathematics units and 15 credits at Merit or above. This must include 15 credits in Chemistry units achieved at Distinction.’
GCSEs All applicants are required to hold three GCSEs at grade C/4 or above including English Language and Maths (Level 2 equivalents are not accepted).’

So you are doing the access to HE in science. You will need to achieve the level specified above, including 15 credits in chem at a distinction. Apologies i cant break this down for you very well as i have little knowledge of the credit system, i hope you understand it or can ask someone on your course 🙂
For GCSEs, it just says you need a 4 in eng lang and maths which you have so you should be fine on that front.
