For years I was planning on applying for medicine, I've done a lot of hospital work experience and 10A*s at GCSE. However, due to a bad volunteering experience close to the application time last year, I had a self confidence drop and applied for biological sciences instead. Soon after, I started having regrets and wished I had stuck with medicine. I spoke to my uni advisor at school and he said that although med schools say that they require AAA, because there are so many applicants in order to be a competitive applicant on a gap year and to be seriously considered, you need A*A*A or A*AA at least. He said its partly also because a lot of the people who are applying who haven't done their a levels yet will have been predicted lots of A*s... So I guess my question is, could I apply with AAA and still be accepted anywhere, and are there people who reapplied successfully for medicine with AAA - I was thinking of unis like Exeter, Bristol, Southampton etc.
Please help!
Thanks
