heyyy,

right.. im currently in my first year of college doing AS in biology, psychology, economics and law. I decided on doing medicine quite a bit after i started college (was too late to change my subjects this year). So what i want to do is, drop economics and law next year, then do AS and A2 chemistry next year. So i would have A2 chemistry, biology, and psychology. and also AS economics and law.

Say i get, AAB, with the B in biology or psychology.. and i get 2 B's for AS economics and law.. would i have a chance of getting in, even though i did AS & A2 chemistry in my final year. Im a bit worried that i wont have a AS chemistry result to put in my UCAS application. Im just wondering if this will make any difference.

Also please note, i'v booked a weeks work experience at a hospital for this summer, and i'v got an interview on 9th march (this monday) to do minimum 6 months voluntory work at bolton hospice, helping at the wards, so i will have good experience of patient contact from that. and even nurses and doctor contact i guess. i will probably do about 4 hours per week.

My GCSE results are:
Maths - B
Core & Additional science - A, A
Extra Biology - A
Extra Chemistry - A*
English language & literature - A (lang), B (lit)
Statistics - C
BTEC first diploma in Business - Distinction* (equivilant to 4a*s apprntly)
Geography - C
French - C

Taking all of this in to consideration, could you please tell me if i have a chance of getting in to this medical school.

Oneee more thinggg (im soryy lol).. if anyone wants to answer.. can you please tell me a little bit about the course, in terms of like patient contact and clinical work.. because i would prefer a course which has this from the start.. and also can you tell me if this course has any PBL, and how much, because id prefer little or no PBL to be honest. And just a little bout student life there (taking in to consideration i dont drink but im stil up fr a gud laugh! lol), and accommodation.

Thankk youuu so much if anyone answers lol.. i know its a lot to answerrr.. but i would reallyy appreciate it. i realy realy want to do medicine!

Nice one broooos!

What you need to do is email what youve written to the med schools youre interested in. like in CV form. ask their opinions.
Thats what I did and got some good feedback
and more accurate than what we on here will tell you if its from the horses mouth.

Also, do a search of this site for info regarding the course. If you still have questions, then ask

Best of luck with your application
