Best courses for Biology, Physics, Spanish A-levels at BBB?

I’m doing Biology, Physics and Spanish at A level, aiming for BBB. I also really like computer science and AI. What uni courses have worked well for people with this mix, especially near Kent? 😊

The physics should allow you to do computer science and AI, other similar degrees you could do are engineering, bioengineering. You could also do other science based subjects like biomedical, pharmacology/pharmacy, natural sciences, environmental sciences etc.. And with Spanish you could do languages, international development or relations and other linguistics based degrees. As your aiming for BBB, its best to check the grade requirements at each uni as more competitive ones will be looking for AAA or above.

Hope this helps 😊

The deadline for fully completed UCAS applications - including your school/college adding reference and grades is 6pm NEXT Weds. You have left it painfully late to do this fir 2026 entry if you have not even worked out what you want to study, or why - or even started to write a Personal Statement.

Honest advice? Plan a gap-year and do some calm, careful thinking about why you want to go to Uni - a degree isn't the magic door-opener it used to be and going to Uni will cost you £65,000+. Look at apprenticeships - Search apprenticeship Find an apprenticeship GOV.UK - you can still go to Uni after this when you have clearer idea of what you really want to do - and why.

I don’t think they are in year 13 it seems they are in year 12

Kent uni itself requires BBB for computer science AI specialism. Have a look at the requirements for some other local unis of interest, make sure to check if they require maths because some will. If a course does require maths then look at if theres a foundation year or consider taking a gap year to sit a level maths.

Thanks for the input. Appreciate it. Yeah, I am Yr12 so still have plenty of time but want to start thinking about my options.
