    Right bitches, a fellow human and co-conspirator is uninformed in certain matters pertaining to course transfers and wishes to change that as soon as possible. It is believed that this glorious new found information is to be used in a manner that will be of some benefit to her in the medium term future. So here we go...

    Is it possible to enter JS physiology upon completing a degree in biochem? Apparently another full four years in college as a full time student is seen as less than appealing.

    Looked through the forum and didn't find anything concrete on this, so if anyone tells me to do another search, well.... they'd better not mind getting acquainted with a gallows or the keel of a ship. Cheers chappies. Now I need answers fast or the kid gets it.

    Are you still drunk ed? Yeah best get Dee to ask her tutor / science faculty office / head of physiology (cos it's really up to them if they accept her or not) in that order.

    I'd imagine this is a rare enough occurance that the "SU whores" wouldn't know. But it's not unprecedented. I knew an MD that, after her 4th year of medicine joined final year biochem, got her degree in that and then rejoined 5th year med. There is also the matter of fees. The government won't pay for 3rd and 4th year again.

    I sincerely don't think any university would make her do 1st and 2nd year science again. So your main problem is the limited places in physiology.

    Is there a masters course in physiology for relevant science grads? I know there's one for neuroscience where you can build on your degree and essentially do what I did for my degree in a year. Considering the physiology department is so neuroscience based it might be worth checking out.

    You could probably do a graduate diploma else were to same effect....

    Not unheard of, but as an example I know of language students who were let into SF <a language> without any qualifications, so it is certainly possible. She should contact the department herself.

    I would presume to enter JS physiology she might be expected to have SF results in line with her competitors. As aPex mentioned, she most likely would have to pay 11000 for the 2 years. I would certainly question her motives, what she expects to acheive from a physiology degree she won't get with her biochem and some work experience or a M.Sc.
