Hi,
I want to do medicine at university and i have just completed my AS levels, I do Biology, Chemistry and Psychology.
This is my second year at college as i resat the year due to getting terrible results last year I got 2 Es in biology and chemistry which obviously was not even worth applying to university as they wouldnt even consider those grades.
So i decided to resit the whole year and so far I have achieved BCC.. which I plan to change to 3AAAs during A2 if my Unit 2 exams dont improve the grades.
What i was wondering is do universities look down upon students who resit a whole year of AS. Which means 2 years of doing AS as it was restarted the year after, but without resitting A2..
And also means 3 years at College, I'm asking because I was told they dont consider retakes who have retook the whole A level meaning 4 years of study whereas i have only retaken 1 year of AS only..

sorry if this is long lol.

I have read that most universities say you need to have completed your a-levels within 2 years so they don't actually accept you if you have resat the year :-( however you should have a look around, some universities may be more lenient about it?

Check The medicince wiki page, but most unfortunately don't consider BUT some do.

Unless you have extenuating circumstances no medical schools that I know of will accept three year applicants to their a100 course.

Thank you.
Medicine universities are so over the top, think i'l just switch to pharmacy then.

I can't see how you can get in to pharmacy school with just BCC grades....
