One of the great things about the UK system is that they have very specific and comprehensive info online. Go to the website, put in the course you want and it will tell you the UK requirements. For Arabic at SOAS, that info is [here[/url]; click on ‘alternative entry requirements’ for international qualifications and you will see that they want a GPA of 3.0 or better, plus scores of 4,4,5 on UCAS “A” APs (you can find the breakdown of APs [url= https://www.ucas.com/ucas/undergraduate/getting-started/entry-requirements/tariff/tariff-tables/966]here](https://www.soas.ac.uk/nme/programmes/baarabic/)); if you read down you will see that they prefer that one of those APs to be in a foreign language. You will find the same info for all unis, though sometimes you have to click around to find the international equivalents, which vary more than you might think by uni
