jina Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 i'm in my second year of ib and up until now I had been very unsure of what i wanted to study in universityi'm quite interested in food science and nutrition so I think i may want to go towards those subjects in university. Some prerequisites state that i need to have taken one science at HL and I have only taken chemistry at SL, obviously i cannot change subjects now because I am in my second year and it is too latedo i have no chance of being able to study this subject in uni?

Sofia. Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 If you don't fulfill the requirements, you cannot take the course. All unis might not require chemistry at HL, though, so you might look into that. What unis/countries are you considering? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rindala Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Hello Jina, I am also hoping to major in Nutrition in university and i'm currently only taking HL Biology. I would say it depends on the university you wish to study at, but most US universities don't really care, since you can usually take those basic science courses there. I don't think you should worry about it, but again, if you're applying to the US, you can maybe take the biology subject tests. You can study from the subject test text books independently (they're usually straight-forward). It shows the admissions that you're a good fit if you score well on those. Hope this helps Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo_Zhouchuyun Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 Hi, I am now in pre-IB and I am going to choose my DP cources. I am very interested in nutrition and also want to study nutrition in the future. but in my school, our chem teachers are not very nice and i am not sure whether choose chem or not( if i choose it, my GPA may be pretty low……) moreover, i am not so talented at chem and i still need to improve. how about your current situation? did you successfully apply for your dream school?
