higher cert in science?

I was thinking of applying for this course, but I didn't do chemistry for the LC (which was ten years ago for me) nor was I great at maths. If I got a place and worked hard at it, would I have much trouble?

It really does depend on your capabilities, if you work hard you'll get through it but to do well you'll have to grasp the concepts, there is a strong mix of biology and chemistry but the first semester is all about building up the basics.

Alot of students start with either no science subjects or only one of the two so you won't be at to much of a disadvantage.
