You generally do not need strong mathematics scores for legal studies, as law programs focus more on critical thinking and writing. Some law courses may require a basic level of mathematics, but this is usually minimal.

For finance and business programs, good mathematics scores are typically required. Many universities expect a strong background in mathematics for these courses.

Requirements can vary by university and program. If you need help confirming the exact entry criteria for your target universities, your LeapScholar counsellor can assist you.
