Sat instead of a level maths
Hello everyone! I’m doing chemistry, biology and psychology and did not take a-level maths since I didn’t get a 7 in my GCSE’s that are required to take A-level maths at my school. I have a bad grade in gcse as well (5) and im afraid that no university will take to biochemistry course (outside of UK) without having maths. Can I do SAT instead? To somehow cover no maths?

No, you cannot. The SAT is for universities in the US, and cannot substitute anything.
As above for UK universities the SAT will not replace the requirement for A-level Maths.
Also the SAT is an admissions test, not a qualification.

SAT is below GCSE maths standards. All it really demonstrates is fast answering, not any mathematical ability like a-level does. You're going to have to take Maths A-level if you want Biochem

Hello, yes taking the SAT Math (preferably Math Checking each university requirements may be of use as some may require A level Maths for biochemistry.
