A science degree at UCT requires a minimum aggregate of 70% with probably offers at 77%. You also need to write the National Benchmark test. I was wondering on what you need to include for your personal report? Also your grades must be very good as it is a very competitive course. You have good grades and you going to be able to study at university, you just need to find the right course that fits with your achievement levels. If you can’t change to pure maths, I suggest you change physics for something that is not so hard to get good marks. You will need a good back up plan though.

The UCT documentation says intermediate performance is acceptable on the NBTs. The institution is proud to have the second oldest veterinary faculty in Africa. Also you write your NBTs and present a personal portfolio. My gr11 marks are discouraging L4 for maths and physics L5 for life sc and English. All the best, Kath. There is a lot of competition for places so you must have excellent grades to get an offer. Some universities will take into consideration if you are from a disadvantaged background.
