University of Birmingham

SAT 1380+

Birmingham's own Medicine and Surgery (five-year) entry-requirements page states US applicants need any three of: AP exams, IB Higher Level subject tests, or college-level Honours classes (to include Chemistry and a second science from Biology/Physics/Maths) -- and that an ACT score of 29+ or an SAT-R score of 1380+ may be used to replace ONE of those three required qualifications. All international applicants, with no stated US exemption, must sit the UCAT and are ranked by score for interview. A real, current, course-specific figure -- not Birmingham's general international-applicants floor.

AAB including A in Biology/Human Biology, plus one of Mathematics/Further Mathematics/Statistics/Chemistry/Physics (or any other two subjects if Biology/Human Biology itself is at A); IB 6,6,5 at HL including Biology/Human Biology, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Biological Sciences BSc entry-requirements page (UCAS code C100) confirms the AAB/IB 6,6,5 standard and two equivalent routes to satisfy it: Biology/Human Biology plus one science/maths subject from a named list, or Biology/Human Biology alone at grade A with the remaining two subjects unrestricted. Royal Society of Biology accredited. Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

AAB, no specific subjects required (A-level, excluding General Studies/Critical Thinking/Use of Maths); IB 6,6,5 at HL, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Business Management BSc entry-requirements page (UCAS code N200) confirms the AAB/IB 6,6,5 standard and no required subjects. GCSE English at 6/B and Mathematics at 5/B required. Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

AAA including Chemistry, no supporting subject required, or AAB including Chemistry plus a supporting subject from Mathematics/Further Mathematics/Physics/Biology/Computing (A-level); IB 6,6,6 to 6,6,5 at HL including Chemistry, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Chemistry BSc entry-requirements page confirms a real, two-tier structure mirroring the Psychology entry: AAA if Chemistry stands alone with no supporting science/maths subject, or AAB if paired with one from a named list. Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published. No UCAS code confirmed on this page.

A*AA including grade A in Mathematics (A-level); IB 7,6,6 at HL including HL6 Mathematics, 32 points overall, SL5 English

Birmingham's own Computer Science BSc entry-requirements page (UCAS code G400) confirms the A*AA (Mathematics A)/IB 7,6,6 standard; programming experience is desirable but not essential. Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead; the same floor's grade-equivalency table does note AP Calculus BC (not AB) is required wherever A-level Mathematics is specified. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

A*AA or AAA (A-level, including Mathematics)

Birmingham's official USA-applicants page states a general SAT 670-Reasoning/1350-combined or ACT 28 figure, explicitly as a substitute for one of three required subject tests (alongside AP/Honours/college-level options), not a standalone course-specific bar -- the page does not distinguish this figure by course, and gives no indication Economics BSc has a different standard from the university floor. Same honest-gap treatment as Manchester and Leeds: no direct SAT/ACT figure published since the figure found isn't confirmed as this specific course's real admission bar. AP Calculus BC (not AB) is explicitly required where A-level Maths is specified. Tuition not confirmed -- left unset.

AAB (A-level), at least one A-level in an Arts/Humanities/Social Science subject; A-level English Literature or English Language and Literature preferred, otherwise GCSE English Literature at grade 7 required; IB 6,6,5 at HL, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own English Literature BA entry-requirements page (UCAS code Q300) confirms the AAB/IB 6,6,5 standard and the two-path English requirement (A-level English Literature/Language and Literature preferred, else GCSE English Literature at 7). Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

AAB (A-level) including History/Medieval History/Ancient History/Early Modern History, or GCSE History at grade 7/A plus an A-level from a named list of Arts/Humanities/Social Science subjects; IB 6,6,5 at HL, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own History BA entry-requirements page (UCAS code V100) confirms the AAB/IB 6,6,5 (32 overall) standard and a real, two-path subject requirement: either A-level History (or Medieval/Ancient/Early Modern History), or a GCSE History grade 7/A combined with an A-level from a long named alternative-subjects list (Anthropology, Archaeology, Classical Civilisation, Economics, English, Geography, Government and Politics, History of Art, Law, languages, Music, Philosophy, Psychology, Religious Studies, Sociology, among others). No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

AAA (A-level, General Studies not accepted); IB 6,6,6 at HL with 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Law LLB entry-requirements page confirms the AAA/IB 6,6,6 (32 overall) standard and names no admissions test -- Birmingham Law School states directly it does not require or consider the LNAT for entry, a real, confirmed contrast with every other Law entry this list has added (Oxford, Cambridge, King's, LSE, UCL), all of which do require one. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure exists; Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead -- no direct SAT/ACT figure published. No UCAS code confirmed on this page.

AAA including grade A in Mathematics or Further Mathematics (A-level); IB 6,6,6 at HL including Mathematics, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Mathematics BSc entry-requirements page (UCAS code G100) confirms the AAA/IB 6,6,6 standard and a real offer-reduction mechanism this list hasn't documented for any other Mathematics entry: a one-grade reduction (minimum A in Maths/Further Maths still required) for a STEP grade 2, TMUA 5.0+, MAT 60%+, or a British/International Mathematics Olympiad distinction certificate -- none of these tests is itself mandatory. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.

AAB including grade A in Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Physics advantageous but not required (A-level); IB 6,6,5 at HL including Mathematics, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Mechanical Engineering BEng entry-requirements page confirms the AAB/IB 6,6,5 standard and a real, conditional admissions test: applicants without A-level Mathematics can instead be assessed via a Mathematics Aptitude test set by the admissions team -- not required of applicants who do hold A-level Mathematics. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published. No UCAS code confirmed on this page.

AAA (A-level, no science subject) or AAB (A-level, including one of Chemistry/Biology/Human Biology/Physics/Psychology/Mathematics/Further Mathematics/Statistics); IB 6,6,6 to 6,6,5 at HL, 32 points overall

Birmingham's own Psychology BSc entry-requirements page (UCAS code C800) confirms a real, two-tier offer depending on subject mix: AAA if the applicant holds no science subject from a named list, or the one-grade-lower AAB if they do. Names no admissions test. No US-applicant course-specific SAT/ACT/AP figure -- Birmingham's general international-applicants floor applies instead. No direct SAT/ACT figure published.
