Applying to medicine

I got a 7 in English Literature but I got a 9 in all the sciences, maths and further maths. Will I still be able to apply for medicine in universities like Cambridge, UCL or Imperial?
Yes!

Have you looked at their GCSE requirements? The med school websites are where you are going to get that answer

I have and I'm only 1 grade above the minimum requirement, but I'm doubting if I will get in since, I'm assuming, the majority of students get at least an 8.

Cambridge and Imperial do not use GCSEs for selecting for interview, so as long as you meet minimum requirements, they will not be assessed further in deciding who to interview

The GCSE minimum requirement for GCSEs, I would presume is what is meant. Though i don't think any of them use Eng Lit.......

Yeah, I didn't expect anyone to say this, but I thought that if someone had gone through a similar situation they may be able to help.
