I am finishing my first year of BTEC science and i found it really hard at the start not to mention lockdown which didn't help but after Christmas it started to become enjoyable and i ended up doing really well in the coursework (its super easy if you take notes in the subject and the teachers always help you if your stuck on what to write), i didn't have very good GCSEs and only just passed combined science, i had to retake maths in college too but this course is super worth it, the chemistry was the hardest out of all subjects for me, but the biology was really interesting, i definitely recommend it.
Hi Dave, thank you for this video, it's very informative. Please can you make a video on careers and university courses that people can go into with applied science?
Hello, is it true that you can become a nurse or a midwife with Btec applied science and btec health&care? I’ve always wanted to work in a hospital as a nurse or so and I just want to know if that would be able to help me. The university I want to go to allows btecs although I’m unsure if hospitals allow btec
@@zylia3929 thats cool, i suggest you focus on your education but also start appling to modelling agencies and take the chance! but modelling is a full time career and needs ur 100% passion and determination.
Hey dave i have a feww question right know im pretty stuck i have started my course dis week however i would like to know wht can i do in university with btec level 3 extended diploma in applied science (BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE) IM PRETTY STUCK ON COURSE CHOICESS AND IM NOT REALLY GETTIN MUCH HELP FROM THE INTERNET AND COLLEGE.I have currently got grade 8-9 in combined science gcse.Can u please help me out and let me know wht i can do with my btec course in UNIVERSITY.And cn u give me any recommended websites which can aid me in my unit 1 exam.Thank u very much.
I got 2 questions. 1) What exam board is BTEC applied science and also I’ve always dreamt of becoming a pharmacist and my predicted grades where very high but and I was already revising A level bio and chem and I found them quite easy but my GCSE result was 6-5 in combined science and 6 in maths so I had to do BTEC. If I get a D* in BTEC science and A* in maths would that be fine to do medicine?
Hi Milan The exam board is Pearson Very high A Level grades are needed to do Pharmacy and Medicine. (A*s and As) and all courses demand A level Chemistry. There are plenty of medical related courses you can do with good BTECs e.g. Nursing, Occupational Therapy etc.. Do your own research on the UCAS site Dave
1. Have a chat with a biology teacher at your school/college 2. Look on the entry requirements for medicine on university websites. If you find a medicine course that will take BTECs then please let me know.
@@raghadajlouni5592 Thanks for your comment. I would be more than happy to do a foundation year but I can't seem to find anything of the sort. If you could share any sources it will be much appreciated. Thanks again
@@yolz_0918 I found this for Edge Hill University. A Level / BTEC Combination: BB at A level and D in single BTEC Level 3 Subsidiary Diploma or National Award. BB at A level must be obtained in both Chemistry and Biology and D in BTech Diploma Look at their website to find out more.

How many exams are there in btec science
My man is back

good idea. I'll get to work on that

if your doing health and social then ofc u can, it also goes along well w applied science!
@@whatevaj2757 are people also able to be a nurse and a model? I want to be a nurse and I also wanted to be a model ever since I was young

Hello Dave, I want to go through the biomedical path to get into dentistry. Can I do that?
dentistry is hard to get into
have a look on...

“scores are not great” “5’s and 6’s, maybe 7s”
me with 4’s & 5’s , going into my 2nd year of btec applied science: 👀
well done. You wouldn't have been accepted onto A level courses but now you have a good chance of getting good UCAS points.
@@btecappliedsciencehelp I got 6s in everything except for maths which was a 5 and they put me on Btec I was so annoyed
@@unknown-4590 seems harsh.

Can you do astrophysics at uni from taking btec science? I’m in yr12 and predicted a D* and I’m just trying to think about possible future pathways.
To do Astrophysics at Uni you must do A level Maths and Physics and get very good grades in them.
@@btecappliedsciencehelp ok thank you
Hey, is it completely impossible to do medicine with btec? even with 3 D*?
1. Have a chat with a biology teacher at your school/college
2. Look on the entry requirements for medicine on university websites.

Look at their website to find out more.
The university of Bristol have a btec offer for medicine at DMM with applied science, health and social care or any science related course.
@@lizziadele7050
the 5 year course at Bristol
DDD in Applied Science (Biomedical), plus A-level Chemistry. Distinctions may be requested in specified units.
There is a 6 year Gateway to Medicine course but there are restrictions on who can apply.
See their website for more info.
Will you be doing unit 5 content this year?
yes, although its based mostly on your own research
would you have to do other subjects or would applied science count as all of them?
it depends what your college offers.
Extended certificate = 1 A level
Extended diploma = 3 A levels
would you say this is a good option alongside psychology? I'm a bit stuck because I can't choose which single science to do... so would this work?
yes definitley!!
my school doesnt have btec applied science what should i do
do something else
@@btecappliedsciencehelp like what?
@@sully6191 like apply to another school that does have it
or do another subject
