Hi everyone.
My education has gone down a pretty messy route since the start of my A-Levels, and at the moment I'm trying to really figure out what to do.
In my GCSEs, I achieved 4A*s, 5As, and 2Bs.
I then started my AS Levels, and achieved ACDD. I then moved onto Year 13, and, while resitting some AS Levels at the same time as my A2s, came out with ADE in Psychology, Chemistry and Maths respectively.
These grades are pretty horrendous but there were some extremely significant extenuating circumstances throughout all my A-Levels (obviously I'd rather not go into detail).
In clearing I somehow managed to get onto a Mechanical Engineering course. I didn't have a clear direction, and was thrilled I'd gotten onto anything at all, so went for it.
It wasn't for me at all, and I dropped out. I returned home around February time and decided to resit my full A-Levels in Chemistry and Maths. In hindsight this was a bad idea as I had very little time to cover the material. I'm not particularly optimistic about how my results will turn out. The previously mentioned circumstances also had a lasting effect.
However, now I'm in a much better place, and am really trying to consider all my options going forward. Frankly, I feel that I'm just as intelligent as the people in my year who went onto Medicine; we got similar grades until my A-Level collapse.
I know nobody can say for certain, but does anyone have an idea of if there is a chance of being accepted for UG or Graduate Medicine? (Guessing I'd have to get my A-Levels up to scratch, and I have no doubt I can do it now that these circumstances have subsided). Does anyone have experience in similar situations? If so, what is the best way to go about it?
Thanks.
