entry requirements to Swedish university for British student?
I want to go to university in Sweden, it says one of the qualifications required for entry is the Swedish mathematic A. Would a maths GCSE cover this for a British student, and what grade would I need? I have D grade maths GCSE, would I need to retake and get a higher grade? Also, what is the minimum number of A-Levels required for Swedish university entrance, I've been told you need either 2 A-Levels or 4 AS-Levels, can anyone confirm this?

I don't quite know how your GCSE's and A-levels work but I've translated this from the Swedish board of higher education's website. Education which includes at least 3 subjects in GCSE/IGCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education/International General Certificate of Secondary Education) and at least 2 subjects in GCE A level (General Certificate, Advanced level), total of 5 subjects, will give basic qualification for university/college education in Sweden. Also other combinations of subjects in GCSE and GCE can give basic qualification: 2 A levels + 3 GCSE (5 different subjects) 1 A level + 2 AS levels + 3 GCSE (6 different subjects) 4 AS levels + 3 GCSE (7 different subjects) 3 A levels + 1 GCSE (4 different subjects) 2 A levels + 2 AS levels + 1 GCSE (5 different subjects) 1 A level + 4 AS levels + 1 GCSE (6 different subjects) I needed the Swedish equivalent of at least Maths grade C when I applied for uni, but I cannot say what is needed for international applicants, but I would guess that you need at least a C.
