English test waiver

King's sets undergraduate English requirements in named bands rather than one figure: Band A (7.5 overall, minimum 7.0 in each skill, for its Dentistry entry programme for medical graduates), Band B (7.0 overall, minimum 6.5 in each skill, covering arts and humanities, law, medicine, business and most other programmes), and Band D (6.5 overall, minimum 6.0 in each skill, for Natural, Mathematical and Engineering Sciences and some other courses). Band C applies only to postgraduate courses and no undergraduate course currently sets Band E.
