Salaam dost, I would suggest you contacting the universities about what they exactly need, if not you could do your GCSEs here then your a levels

University of newcastle

these are some that do accept but you should email every university you wanna apply to to confirm.

Sorry for the late reply but I'm in y12 aiming for 2025 entry into either medicine or dentistry. I've done highschool and primary school in england so I don't know how helpful this may be but
For studying in england, most universities require Biology and Chemistry A-Level. For studying in scotland I believe the requirements are Physics and Chemistry (I'm not too sure as I've mainly looked at studying in England). They also require a minimum GCSE grade 6 in English Language and Math (some have minimum grade 5).
I've also heard about pathways into medicine through GAMSAT but I'm not sure if that would apply to you (graduate entry medicine).
I'd recommend doing your own research on the UCAS website.
Other websites I'd recommend are:
medify (UCAT prep)
Medical Schools Council
medicmentor
