It depends what you want from a medical school, what sort of course? early clinical contact, small or big city?

I'm at BSMS, medicine is slightly odd in that you really can't look at where universities are ranked to determine how good they are. the different league tables vary widly in where they place the universities. I am not sure about transfering, I know that it is possble between some universities however I don't know what the rules are reguarding cambridge.

You would be better of looking at the course structures and how much clinial contact they have, whether you want PBL or not and then use that to decide. All the universities that you have mentioned are of a high quality.

Bristol ask for an A in Chemistry, so make sure you're able of getting an A. Out of those three, I would say Bristol > Nottingham > Leicester.

Do you even NEED to ask? Obvious answer is Leicster...they say they want an A, but they let in 2 of ma mates with ABB this year and a B in chem
