      Hi –

      I got AAC at A level, and then a 2.i at undergraduate, and then a distinction for my Master’s degree. Exams are prtty important unfortunately!

      To go to edinburgh university and study chemistry you need:

      ABB, AAA or AA in your A levels.
      If you are from scotland you need at least ABBB in your highers.
