Hey 
I was wondering if, for a-level that is, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics would be good subjects to gain entry into the Cambridge medical program?
Many people say that you need three A-levels and one AS level, but is doing three ok?
Please post your comments. Many thanks!

They would be acceptable for Cambridge, but bear in mind that you will be applying to other universities as well and they may well a)like you to have a non-scientific subject and b)have a 4th subject at AS at least (which may be included in your offer). It will also of course exclude you from universities where Biology is a requirement.
Woh ok kk thanks. As I said i plan on doing Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics but with those three I believe I may not even be able to study Medicine even with AAA grades at the likes of Oxbridge, Imperial, Durham or even St Andrews.

Well, technically you'd meet the requirements for Oxford, Cambridge and St Andrews, but not Imperial, and Durham don't do Medicine (it's run on one of their campuses, but it's part of Newcastle Medical school). So I'd advise you a)look at the table of requirements, b)have more of a look at med schools you like the look at and c)seriously consider taking a 4th AS at least. If you have a look on the Medicine wiki and the Medicine forum here, you'll find quite a lot of useful information.
Helenia, I think i`ll take Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics and then in my second year i'll do the Biology AS. Do you think that's ok?
there's a facebook group "Oxbridge to Imperial Transfers 2009", only 13 members though...
can anyone tell me how often you have to work on saturdays/how easy it is to have saturdays off?
I tended not to work on at least one of the weekend days (unless there was some kind of "essay crisis") often both. But then I didn't get a 1st and worked a decent amount of the holidays, soooo... yeh

You won't have timetabled stuff on Saturdays (unless your college are REALLY mean and put supervisions then). If you are organised you should be able to take some time out. What are you considering doing?

I'm a welsh rugby nut, so i tend to go down to Cardiff 4/5 Saturdays a year for the Wales home matches
Impressive dude. That's dedication!

I had supervisions on Saturdays both first and second years, and this year I have lectures on Saturday... (To be fair, though, some of the supervisors really don't have a choice but to supervise on Saturdays due to working full-time/etc...)

Fair enough. I never had one on a Saturday, you must be unlucky! We did have 9am lectures on Saturdays during second year, but I rather thought that had changed. Or are you doing 3rd year Path or something?
Anyway, GoldieStocks, if you're organised (and possibly take some reading on the bus/train!) and lucky with supervisions, you might manage to continue to follow the rugby.

Nope, no Saturday lectures at all in second year now, but yes I am doing Part II Path at the moment thus the Saturday lectures!
The advantage to Saturday supervisions/lectures though is that it stops me sleeping until way past brunch - so far this year I've found that I can wake up, go to lectures, go to the gym, and still make it for brunch in college...
Hey,
I'm just looking for a bit of advice really. I shall be applying to read medicine for 2010 entry and have chosen Clare College
I've searched the forums but can't seem to find any information on the emphasis Clare put on applicants' BMAT performance? I'm very anxious about the BMAT as it looks extremely difficult with the given time limits for each section!
I was pleased with my GCSEs and hopefully, fingers crossed, I am looking at getting 4 A's in my AS levels. However, the BMAT is slightly putting me off applying to Cambridge
Any advice would be really appreciated
