Just for the sake of anybody else who is interested in this information I will post the communications that I have had with James on this thread.
"Thank you so much for your answer to my question, it was really helpful and informative. I have some more questions if you wouldn't mind helping me. I currently study French, Spanish and Psychology with grade predictions of BBB which I can maybe get ABB if I work really hard. That paired with a good interview and lots of my experience should be enough to get me a good shot? I'm really not sure. I understand that my a levels aren't science related (apart from psychology) but am really worried about getting into the course. Also if you know, what are the graduate prospects for medicine? Your help is much appreciated!
James"
To which I replied
"Hey James
I studied A-Level Russian, Sociology and Psychology. Some universities only accept the natural sciences but most accept anything with an 'ology' on the end as being a science so you are pretty well covered there.Your grade predictions sound fine to me, like I said on my post, most are around 280 UCAS points (BBC).So, how old are you exactly and what experience do you have/are you getting ? Me as a 19 year old now (I turned 18 at the beginning of upper sixth) I have 1 year experience volunteering with East of England Ambulance Service as a Community First Responder and 1 year with St.John Ambulance as an Events First Aider. Also I was a lifeguard for 2 years and worked in retail before that, also I have my B and C1 licenses.Where do you stand with experience ? Because at the end of the day, obviously you must have the grades, but everyone applying for the courses you are applying to will also have those grades. Therefore, what is going to make your application stand out on a UCAS form ?.Unfortunately as somebody who is only 19 and about to start their undergraduate degree I am not clued up about GEM. Have to find somebody else about that.
