Need help with picking A levels for medicine!!

I want a job in the medical field; most preferably a GP but I wouldn't mind being a pharmacist or an optometrist. I am guaranteed to do biology and chemistry A level, but I don't know what to do for my third A level.
I am considering maths because I heard that if you take A level biology, chemistry and maths then EVERY medical school would be open to you. The only problem is, I was looking at some past papers for A level maths and it looks REALLY, REALLY hard- I don't know if I'll be able to get an A in it.
If I pick something other than maths (IT or computer science most likely) for my third A level, could I still get into medical school? Is A level maths favoured? Or is it worth not doing A level maths so that it would be easier for me to get AAA at A level.
Thanks

I am predicted an 8 at GCSE maths. Would it be relatively easy for me to get an A? I know I haven't learned any of the content for A level maths yet, I could just be panicking about nothing.

most unis want the third to be psychology, maths or physics

Hey! I applied to med school this year and received all invites- 3 offers despite not having done maths. You DO NOT need maths- bio and chem will be fine, and most med school say any other subject OR some say one of physics, maths, psychology. Have a look at links above and also don't doubt yourself- if you're determined and work hard, you can easily smash that A! Good luck- if you need any help regarding applications, look on medicine threads or ask me! xxx

Just out of interest, what was your third A level?

Psychology- loved it too! Thought it went well alongside bio as some topics link e.g. the brain and nervous system x

There is literally only one medical school that you need your third A-level to be a science or maths subject for (Cambridge.). All the others don't care what you want (except UCLan and Leeds which require the third subject to be "academic").
Don't worry about doing maths if you don't want to take it.
