Should i take a gap year or not

So I've applied to medicine this year to Imperial College London, Brighton and Sussex Medical School, Anglia Ruskin University and University of Manchester. For my 5th choice, I applied for Biomedical Science at St George's University. I've done my interviews at brighton and sussex med school and at Anglia Ruskin and waiting for a response, however I got rejected by imperial and Manchester. I really wanted to study at imperial but now that I got rejected, i'm a bit lost because I not only want to study medicine, I want to study it at a super good uni like imperial, ucl etc. I don't know if I should take a gap year or apply as a post graduate from biomedical science. I don't really want to study at bsms or Anglia because i'm starting to hear not so good stuff about bsms and Anglia ruskin is really new so no one really knows how good the uni is for medicine? Please could you give me advice as to what to do next?

I reapplied and decided to take a gap year on results day after I got rejected from my firm, so really last minute lol. I now have an unconditional offer for LSE and a job in financial services. It’s worth it!!!

Personally, I would take this train and accept one of the two offers. I would not want to go again through the application process and the emotional stress waiting the results. At the end of the day, you will be a doctor.
