Grades A*AA including A* in mathematics. This should include Mathematics with a significant pure element (the Use of Mathematics or Core Mathematics does not satisfy this requirement). General Studies is welcome, but is not normally included as part of the standard offer.Typical Contextual Offer: Grades AAA including Mathematics.
We normally require grade A in Highers Mathematics and Grades AAAB in four further Highers subjects with a scientific bias. The Highers must be taken in one sitting. Or:Three Advanced Highers at grades ABB, including Advanced Highers Mathematics with Grade A. Two Highers in different subjects can replace one of the other two Advanced Higher subjects.English Language not taken at Higher/Advanced Higher must have been achieved at SCQF level 5 (minimum National 5 Grade C/Intermediate 2 Grade C/Standard Grade 3). If a physical science has not been taken at Higher/Advanced Higher we require TWO science subjects at SCQF level 5 (minimum National 5 Grades AB/Intermediate 2 Grades AB/Standard Grade Credit level).
