Are these GCSEs good enough for Medicine?

I've just started Sixth Form, but i'm just wondering if I should even bother trying to pursue entrance into medical school. I got 4 A*'s, 4 A's and a B. I see loads of people with 8-10 A*'s and it makes me wonder if my grades are adequate?

Specific grades are as follows:
Biology A*
Chemistry A*
Maths A*
English Literature A*
English Language A
Further Maths A
French A
Physics A
Computing B

I've just began Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Psychology at A-level.

Why not? Maths A* English lang A that opens up loads of med schools :smile:

Plus bio and chem A* and physics A...these are pretty good

Bare in mind, it's not only GCSEs that are looked at, you've got the UKCAT/BMAT, AS/Predicted grades, Work experience/super curricula, personal statement, reference.

Loads of places to possibly "make up" for places you think you've fallen short in

Best of luck :h:
