Med School

Hi - I got 2A*s and 8 A's in my GCSEs. I really want to go to med school, but know my GCSE results are a bit low. Which units should I apply to that are less focused on GCSE results. I am currently studying A levels in maths, further maths, biology and chemistry and undertaking loads of medical related voluntary work, including working for AgeUK and as a ward volunteer at a local hospital. Thanks.

This page could do with updating, but it's still largely accurate:

Lol.

You'll be fine. Go on individual university websites and look at their entrance criteria. It's all very open, and they'll tell you what grades you need.
