Yes, your 12th-grade scores are important for BSc Nursing and BSc Psychology applications in the UK.

- Most universities require at least 70-75% in 12th grade with strong marks in relevant subjects (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Psychology, or Science).
- You typically need five subjects passed at Grade C (4) or above, including English, Maths, and Science.
- For BSc Nursing, Biology or related sciences are usually essential.
- For BSc Psychology, Psychology or Biology is preferred but not always mandatory.

English language proficiency (like IELTS) is also required, unless you qualify for a waiver. Requirements vary by university and are subject to change.
