    Are there any introductory biology, chemistry, physics courses offered by any colleges or universities, for students who haven't studied science beyond 10th grade ??

    Maybe some credit courses or certificates or something ?

    I am 25, from Pakistan, currently pursuing an undergraduate psychology degree.

    NUI Maynooth run certificates in science for people such as yourself.

    If you do well enough (over 60% I believe) you are guaranteed a place on the 1st year of their General Science Degree.

    I just did this coarse and found it great but they don't do chemistry and biology anymore only maths maths physics experimental physics and computer science.
    would be better of doing a fetac level 5

    Access to science and engineering UCD is one of the best introductory courses you can get in science. If you get over 60% in your grade you automatically get into science in UCD.
