2A's and mainly B's.
I know they are really bad but I was going through severe depression as it took me a long time to cope with my grandfather's death and our family dynamic was very bad and toxic too during that time.

Sp somewhere like Plymouth or Bristol would be good. Plymouth has a UKCAT cut off, so if do well in the UKCAT and get 660+ then however badly u have done in yours gcses doesn't matter. Bristol has only a 15% weighting on gcses so probs checks got 5A*-C grades and maybe a B in science or something like that. The biggest weighting for bristiol is personal statment which is 50%. So if have lots of work experience ect u may have a chance.

don't loose hope. Just contact all unis and look up on there websites to see how they choose appliacnts for interviews.
