GCSEs

For GCSEs, you’ll need a strong pre-16 academic profile such as several GCSE grades of A (or 7) and A* (or 8-9).

We also ask for a good set of GCSE grades or equivalent across a broad range of subjects, with a minimum of grade B (or 6) in GCSE English Language and Mathematics.

A-level subject combinations

• Mathematics at A-level or equivalent is required. Further Mathematics is highly desirable.
• The programme requires excellent quantitative skills. So, quantitatively oriented A-level courses such as Physics or Chemistry provide excellent preparation, although these subjects are not mandatory.
• Good marks in any quantitative courses at GCSE level are also desirable.
