Do Leeds uni have an optometry course available?

Anony

4:02

Right here’s the thing. Last year at Leeds, to apply for my course you needed a grade 4 in English and Maths. Now it’s a 6. I have the 6 in english but not maths. Would I get in?

Shauni

4:03

@Zulaikha hello! No unfortunately Leeds doesn't have an optometry course, sorry

Hi @laraib!

Molly

4:05

@Anony unfortunately the entry requirements can be changed by admissions departments as they like, so you'd have to email them directly for the specifics about whether there's any leeway with this.

nimrah

hey, does psychology count as a science to get into child nursing at leeds uni

Matthew John

Hi @Yusuf!

Zulaikha Riasat

Hey Is it true that ‘university is easier than alevels’?

Shauni

4:05

@Nimrah hi! The entry requirements for child nursing at Leeds are A-level: BBB including a science subject (biology, human biology, chemistry, physics or applied science) unfortunately this doesn't include Psychology, BUT definitely check other unis as they might include it in their ofer

Molly

4:06

@Anony the email addresses for admissions tutors will be on the University website on the page for the course you're looking at.

Hi

Anony

4:06

I did email and they said it’s now a grade 4. I’m extremely confused

Shauni

4:06

@Sana hello :)

Sana jaan

4:06

What a the minimum entry requirement for medicine

Shauni

4:07

@Sana A-level: AAA including Chemistry or Biology. If Chemistry is not offered then Biology must be offered with either Physics or Maths at A level. But you are automatically eligible to transfer to Access to Leeds as an RfE student, this would reduce your offer to ABB

hi i was wondering how to register my attendance?

Molly

4:07

@Anony if that's the info they've provided you with then go with that! Double check with them again before you actually apply in Year 13 just in case, but admissions tutors will always know the entry requirements better than UCAS.

Shauni

4:07

@madiha hello! Molly will be sending out a code in a few minutes

nimrah

4:08

ohh what about adult nursing?

Anony

4:08

What is it for BA Geography

Shauni

4:08

@nimrah yes Psychology is included in the Adult Nursing offer! A-level: BBB preferably including a science subject (biology, human biology, chemistry, maths, physics or social sciences, such as psychology).

Halima

Hi

Molly

@Anony for the BA we're currently asking for AAA, which with Access to Leeds would be reduced to ABB.
