Oh, so sorry to hear this meenah, wubzza155 and housefan12...
wubzza155 and housefan12: I know this is easy for me to say, but I really think that taking a gap year will be brilliant - I've had several in between doing various things (before I even decided I wanted to do Medicine!). They gave me such varied experiences - and I'm sure it'll be the same for you too, which will only serve to strengthen your Medicine applications for next year.
I really wish you all the best of luck!
