        I imagine you would need the core subjects (English, Maths, Science) A*-C grades, but I would check with your teacher. Your school should have some kind of careers advice person you can talk to, I would find out who they are and talk to them 🙂

        I’m afraid I just had to google that, but it would seem that
        each university sets its own entry requirements, but as a general guide you’ll need at least 5 A-C grade GCSEs (including English and a science subject) and at least 2 (preferably 3) A’ levels – biology may be required by some. As Sarah said, best to talk to your careers advisor for more info.
