urgent!! confused about a level choices

hi, i am currently in year 11 and have to pick my a level choices in a few days (i know it’s last minute, but i have been thinking about my decision for a long time and i just can’t make up my mind). i’ve been torn between taking an engineering/finance combo like physics, chem maths and further maths, or taking a med combo (maths, chem, bio). i would like to study medicine, but at the same time i absolutely love physics. if i decided to study medicine i would not be able to take physics a level and i couldn’t imagine not taking physics after gcse. i have considered taking maths chemistry physics and biology but i have been told this combination may be too stressful and end up in me getting lower grades (i would want all A* if i was aiming for med school). also, if i took the engineering route, my a level choices would open a lot of doors for me, however if i took the med a level combo i think the only other options i would have apart from med would be a biochem degree/biomed engineering which i am not interested in, i am considering this heavily as I have heard that medicine is extremely hard to get into and that even some people with a full set of A*, an excellent personal statement and lots of work experience end up getting rejected from every med degree (would appreciate if someone could confirm or deny this?) any advice on what I should do? sorry this was so long 😭

I take bio chem maths fm - I want to go into medicine but I was torn between Maths/Engineering and Medicine. If you get all A*s in a levels, good ucat score and do well in interview/ps it'd be hard not to get a place in med school. Especially if you spread out your options (like if you apply to Oxford also apply to a less competitive school too to even out chances a bit).

If you can take 4 I'd go bio chem maths phys/fm, most unis for engineering want either phys or fm. I think the combos are doable, the sciences and maths all kind of tie into each other so it's not ridiculous. And then if you are worried about workload you can drop one after AS when you have more of an idea of what you want to do.
