should i keep pharmacy or go for medicine?

i think that if you take pharmacy and then decide to do medicine then it is relatively easy to switch.

what university did u get an offer from if u dont mind me askin?

i applied for medicine at 4 universities and had 2 choices for which i picked to do pharmacy as a backup, so far i have got offer for interviews for pharmacy, and as my predicted grades werent that great (BBB) i dnt have a chance for medicine, so ill eaither take a year out for retakes and work experience or should i just keep phamacy?? cos pharmacy is not as highly rated and the pay rates are lower???? i need advice people, im lost and confused!

really? my friends brother applyed to pharmacy and hated it, and after the first year switched to medicine.

It is almost totally unheard of. He might have been lucky and expressed unhappiness with pharmacy at the same time as someone droping out of medicine, thus freeing up a place. I'm guessing less than 1% of all people on a medicine degree are 'transfers' from other degrees.

kingston unfortunately, but iapplied for st george's and their campus is in kingston uni, so no worries

Nothing will guarentee you a place! Hell, getting 4 A grades at A-Level won't guarentee you a place! But, if you want something bad enough, you can't give up! There are people in my year (matures admittedly) who applied 4 years running before they 'struck lucky'.

I have A,C,D at A-Level (and mitigating circumstances) and 2 x A, 6 x B, 1 x C and 1 x D (History - subliminal learning does not work!!). My interviews were fine/good/even fun!!!

The question you have to ask yourself is this: It's it's 2008 (or 2009 is your offer is MPharm). You're graduating - what do you want to do?
a) Become a practicing pharmacist, baby!
b) Damn! I can't shake the thought of medicine off - back to uni for another 5 years, with debt hanging over me from my first degree...?

I was hospitalised for 9 months of my lower 6th with anorexia.
