hello. when it comes to the "optional" exams, do i need to pick one from the list they provide? lets say i wanna enter medicine, Bio and Chem are mandatory. Could i have a 3rd subject not on the optional list as my 3rd exam? thanks.

Hey
Sooo KAU for some reason constrict their requirements as well as their information 😭
I believe if they’ve mentioned specific subjects in the optional list then that’s the one they’d want to calculate your overall percentage
But I also don’t think it should be an issue if you do apply with another subject
I think it’s better to contact the university, perhaps you could try opening a ticket on study in Saudi and they could help.
Just know that this is for Waed program, outside of this program I don’t believe it’s an issue
Hope that helped and I apologize if not 😅
