ScotGEM academic requirements

To be considered for interview, ScotGEM applicants must have achieved or be predicted to achieve a 1st or 2.1 Honours degree, or equivalent. Honours degrees in Arts, Science and other disciplines will be accepted.

In addition, applicants must have achieved or be predicted to achieve the following academic requirements over and above the Honours degree:

one of Chemistry or Biology or Human Biology at Higher or A Level (grade A or B), ILC H2 or equivalent
Mathematics at Standard Grade (Credit 1 or 2), Intermediate 2 (grade A or B), National 5 (grade A or B), or GCSE (grade B), ILC Ordinary Level O3 or equivalent

Guidance

Applicants will not be considered if their first degree does not meet the degree requirement, even if they subsequently gain further degrees (2.1 or 1st class Honours degree, Masters or PhD).
Applicants who are on, or have been on, a medicine degree course will not be considered. This includes transfer students or those on an intercalating degree.
A lower second-class Honours degree followed by a second degree (first or upper second-class Honours, Masters or PhD) will not be accepted.
Applicants can re-sit Chemistry, Biology or Mathematics qualifications to achieve the required grade, or grades, if not achieved at the time of leaving school.
We may be able to accept 20 credits of undergraduate Chemistry or Biology or Maths at high grades. Modules of mixed science, for example, Biochemistry, are not accepted, modules must be purely of the required science. Maths module content must be diverse and not focus on one specific aspect of Maths, for example, Calculus or Geometry. Please email us if you would like us to check an alternative qualification.
Access courses and HNC or HND qualifications are not accepted.
A GPA of 3.5 is considered to be the equivalent of an upper second-class Honours degree. For advice with regard to degree classifications from other countries, please .
If you have not yet achieved your degree, the reference should include a predicted degree classification.
Graduates need to supply an academic transcript of their performance at university at the time of application.

Whether you will need to provide an English language test score to evidence your English language ability depends on your educational background.

If you have completed your final four years of secondary or high school education in an English-medium school, this may be considered as evidence of English language ability. This will be considered on a case-by-case basis at the point of application, and the University of 精东传媒 reserves the right to ask for additional evidence of English language ability.

IELTS scores have a recommended two-year validity period, and this time limit will be applied.

The School of Medicine will accept the Academic version of the IELTS only.
Degree classification

The School does not consider applicants who have obtained a lower second class Honours degree (or lower). Extenuating circumstances put forward for consideration in this respect would not be considered as the School expects the university awarding the degree to have taken into account any relevant circumstances.

Subject requirements over and above degree

Extenuating circumstances that affected the qualifications required over and above the degree will not be taken into account if they were achieved prior to application.

If extenuating circumstances affect the sitting of qualifications required as part of the conditions of offer for the medical degree programme (other than degree classification), then consideration may be given to applicants whose achieved qualification grades mean they are ‘borderline’ for meeting the entry requirements for ScotGEM.
