You’re not gonna become become a doctor

That’s why I’m resitting, I’m going to include my circumstances in the UCAS application I do

I feel that they look down on me because I got U at first, I’m just going it ignore them and work hard and show them.

Then they'll accept your resits.

It's worth noting that it's still unwise to apply to GCSE heavy schools, even with 7 in Maths and English.

If you get those, then Lancaster, BSMS are also ones that will assess you on BMAT after you meet the sole requirement of having B grades in english and maths

Put your energy into your studies. Use it to motivate you.

That’s what I’m going to do. Prove them wrong , right?

I’m aware Cambridge and UCL aren’t as heavy on them??

Sorry I’m not sure where you got the impression that Cambridge aren’t heavy on GCSEs. They definitely do look at GCSEs to make sure you can cope with how science intensive the course is. Not to mention the majority of applicants have all A’s or A*s at GCSEs.

Correlation ≉ causation

Do you think just getting the best possible for everything else is just the way to go instead of lurking on the past?

I think getting at least 6 in Maths and English GCSE is important.

But after that, yeah

I’ll mKe sure I achieve at least that and bring my prediction grades up to A*AA and score high in my UCAS and do a lot of exprience in hospitals, I currently work at an opticians too so i don’t know if that will relate but I’m also doing an EPQ and taking a A level foreign language too.

“ you’re not gonna become a doctor”

You'll need A*A*A predicted for Cambridge.

Try and fit in care home, tutoring and working with vulnerable children too

The UKCAT? For Cambridge?

I’ve emailed them and they said even tho there is no gcse requirment, most students applying have 4/5 A/A*,

I didn’t said they don’t look at them but I heard they find your UKCAT score and predicted grades with your personal statement work experience etc can overpower your stellar GCSE’s.
