Doing chemistry will keep your options open as it is required by most medical schools.

I would grit my teeth and get through Chem UNLESS you feel there is no way you can get an A (or the grade you need as WP). Bio + 2 arts subjects or Bio + psych + 3rd subject will be quite restrictive in where you can apply though, could you take Bio + Physics/Maths + 3rd subject?

Saying that, if you actively dislike most science subjects then medicine seems like a strange course to choose.

Bear in mind you also need to sit the UCAT and it isn't possible to choose your universities until you know your score, as they all have different cutoffs. Not getting a high enough UCAT would close even more doors. Taking two sciences is the best way to increase your chances.

Newcastle and Sheffield have always had high UCAT cutoffs.
Not too familiar with the other ones to comment on their entry requirements.

An average UCAT score would drop those by 3 and put you on the risky holistic path at Manchester where your GCSEs would likely be a bit of a barrier to interview.
Lancaster requires BMAT, you’d need a high UCAT to compensate for your 7s at Leicester, and Keele and KMMS have very subjective scoring criteria.
