Please note that A-level General Studies, Critical Thinking, Thinking Skills and Global Perspectives are not accepted by King's as one of your A levels.
Must include grade A in Chemistry, and grade A in one from Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics or Biology
Notes:
If you are taking linear A-levels in England, you will be required to pass the practical endorsement in all Science subjects. This is with the exception of private candidates who are unable to take the practical component.
We do not consider the EPQ at any point of the assessment process.

35 points overall or an aggregate score of 17 from three Higher Levels.
Must include grade 6 in Higher Level Chemistry, and grade 6 in Higher Level in one from Biology, Mathematics and Physics.
Notes: The total point score of 35 includes TOK/EE. IB students studying the new Mathematics curriculum would be required to study Mathematics - Analysis and Approaches or Mathematics - Applications and Interpretation at Higher Level to meet the Mathematics subject requirement for this programme.

We welcome students having no Mathematics at A-level, provided that they are numerically proficient and comfortable doing mathematics, which is fundamental to Chemistry, and is used in all their areas, with a special emphasis in physical chemistry. The importance of mathematics in the Chemistry curriculum is the reason of having a specific module Mathematics for Chemists in the first year.
We recommend students applying with no Mathematics at A-level (or equivalent) to have obtained at least an A at GCSE/IGCSE Mathematics (or equivalent) or a B at AS-Mathematics (or equivalent).
