I have always wanted to be a doctor but it doesn't seem possible

It's always been my dream to be a doctor but over the past through years I seemed to have forgot that. I have always been better at arts based subjects and convinced myself that I would be better off as a journalist. I love writing so it wouldn't be a disaster if i ended up in that profession, i just can't stop thinking about medicine.

My GCSE grades were ok but not spectacular. I got A's in both English subjects and in double science. I got a B in maths, a distinction in OCR business and 4 C's in more vocational GCSE subjects. At AS I dropped chemistry and the highest I have ever got in biology is an E. Again i'm doing better in the arts subjects.

I know that the idea of me getting onto a medicine degree straight out of school are near impossible even if i did a foundation year first. I did hear though that some uni's offer medicine at postgraduate depending on how well you do in your subject area. I'm just looking for information really to find out if the idea of me ever being a doctor is feasible or whether i'm just being unrealistic.

In your situation your best bet would be to study a Bachelor of Science degree before even thinking about medicine. Why did you drop Chemistry during AS? If it's because you found it too difficult then I don't think Medicine is a route you should consider; there are plenty of other healthcare professions available which can get you working with patients in a clinical environment and don't require knowledge of chemistry. Have you considered Occupational Therapy?
