Can't understand why you'd want to do the BSc and then apply for medicine. Seems irrational to me. Increasing the cost and making getting into medicine more difficult... When you can intercalate when doing the medicine degree.

Anyway, your choice.

That's partially true; except, usually, the universities choose which of their students can Intercalate, so that freedom of choice really isn't there when the decision's in their hands...

Still though, To each their own.

An intercalated degree is where you take a year out of your medical degree (usually after the third year I think) and you complete the third year of a different degree ie neuroscience. If you pass this year you earn a BSc in the subject you intercalated in.

Chemistry and Biology are musts really, but the other subjects can be almost anything as long as they're academic.

The course is called medicine, and many universities across the UK offer it - I suggest you do some research. I've heard google is good.

I'm sensing some sarcasm there! Haha. Anyway - comedy isn't for moi i'm afraid. One cannot make it through comedy using sarcasm alone. I'd rather be a doctor...
