Haven’t done my GCSEs or a levels but I’m thinking ahead here. I want to do something to do with medicine when I’m in uni and I was wondering if I’d still be able to do that even though I do combined science. If you’re wondering I always intended to do triple but my school forced me to do combined even after asking multiple times

Of course you will, in some schools triple science isn't even an option. GCSE's don't matter too much for universities, A-Levels (or equivalent) take much more priority. As long as you get decent grades in combined science, it shouldn't limit you at all!

no, it shouldn't stop you providing you can do the required subjects at a level. i bet there's lots of candidates who do science a levels having done combined higher science.

no it shouldn't do. Is there even an option for you to do triple science at your school, as lots of schools only offer double/combined anyway

Yes there is, I asked my school multiple times if I could triple but they said no

Just concentrate on doing well at combined. Some school may set higher entrance requirements for Combined to do A level (e.g. 7-7 in Combined Science or 6 in Chemistry to do Chemistry A level) but as long as you meet the requirements you should be able to do the A level - after that it's just a question of hitting all the other criteria for Medicine.

are there any others in your year doing triple? how many roughly out of how many? it may just be 10 out 100 or something doing it

About 60 students in my year are doing triple, it’s just people in set 1 that are automatically made to do triple there was no option.

You will not be disadvantaged. Try and get the best grades you possibly can. Good luck.

unless you're not good at it DO IT. ask school, ask your head of year, ask your form tutor, ask your science teachers. it sounds like you want to do it and if they say no, ask for a reason. They may be doing it for a good reason
