Standard Qualification Requirements

EITHER: ABB including Biology or Chemistry at grade A OR: BBB including: Biology or Chemistry; Another science subject from Biology, Chemistry, Physics or Maths; A third subject of your choice (excluding General Studies). Contextual Offers: Offers of a grade below in each subject will be made to those meeting certain Widening Participation (WP) criteria, i.e. a BBB offer would become CCC for WP students and an ABB offer would become BCC for WP students. No separate application is required but care leavers should submit proof from the relevant local authority once they have applied.

See 'Scottish Advanced Higher'.

Diplomas must be Science based and include a minimum of 15 Level 3 credits in Chemistry at Distinction OR 15 Level 3 credits in Biology at Distinction, and with Merits achieved in all other Level 3 modules.

EITHER: Chemistry or Biology at grade A; Another subject of your choice at grade B OR: Biology or Chemistry at grade B; Another science subject from Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths at grade B. In addition to: 5 Highers at grade B and at least National 5 grade B in: English; Mathematics; Biology, Chemistry or Physics. Contextual Offers: Offers of a grade below in each subject will be made to those meeting certain Widening Participation (WP) criteria, i.e. a BB offer would become CC for WP students and an AB offer would become BC for WP students. No separate application is required but care leavers should submit proof from the relevant local authority once they have applied.

EITHER: 655 at Higher Level including Biology or Chemistry at grade 6 OR: 555 at Higher Level including: Biology or Chemistry; Another science subject from Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics; One other subject of your choice. Our standard offer is based on specific subject-grade requirements, rather than a total points score. Where candidates have not taken GCSEs or an equivalent qualification prior to IB, they will need a minimum of grade 5 in: SL Mathematics; SL English A Lang-Lit.
