Hi there, Great question. You require the following qualifications to become an Officer - 72 UCAS points and 35 ALIS points at GCSE (including at least grade C/4 in English, Maths and a science or foreign language).

Hi, for more info you could look at:

As per the direction on the Army website you will need to have 2 Lv 3 qualifications so just doing the 1 course isn't enough i'm afraid:
72 UCAS Tariff points from a maximum of 3 subjects (4 for Scottish Highers and excluding General Studies) with a minimum of 2 at National Level 3 (excluding AS Levels) or National or International equivalent.
Good luck.
