    Well it can't hurt to maybe read a bit around the subjects, like I said up to you. As in medical related experiences like volunteering at hospitals, surgeries, care homes etc. Oh also should be building up your extra curriculars as well. Medicine is literally about the whole package not just the grades. No idea about my summer, haven't thought that far. All that's on my mind right now is Chemistry.
    Haha nice Ok Thanks! Yeah I know a few docs here and there. Btw are you asian? Reason I ask is not because of the sterotype lol but just for the sake of it

    Definitely get the AQA books because some of the content you learn in AQA is not in the OCR sylabus or there are present in different units.
