Ah, that's fairly comforting :smile:

Pretty much my whole tutor group wants to do medicine, and they've all booked their UKCATs for late August-early September :s-smilie:

I just keep telling myself that as long as I'm familiar with the question style, it'll be alright :tongue:

Good luck to you too! :smile:

wow that is a lot of people wanting to do medicine! :lol:

You'd probably have to apply for a Foundation Year Course (6 years) :smile:

You need at least one of the two: iirc everywhere wants chemistry to at least AS level, with the majority asking for it at A2 level. As for biology it's not a specified requirement but check here to see the entry requirements correct as of 2011 entry :h:

If you haven't met the requirements then you might be able to apply for foundation year courses - but you will need to explain why you didnt' do chemistry or biology afaik :yep:

Ah thank you both for that link. Trouble is I'm not sure I'm going to get the necessary grades this year. Just had a terrible exam period. My gcse's are 6A*, 5A's and a B. And I have 4A's in AS Maths, history, economics and politics. There is no way I'm getting above a C in maths this year. I'll be lucky to get a B in History, though I'm confident of an A in economics.

What are my options if I still want to pursue a foundation programme in Medicine?
