Maybe Oxbridge once upon a time.

Did you do A/S ? If good they may redeem you a little.

Was there a good reason for getting this result such as illness?
If there was do you have medical evidence?

Maybe hang fire with resitting this year and do your research.

If you then come back to Britain it will be difficult to get on the career track you wish to have.

Even if you did well you'd run into problems because of your A level results think they would be unlikely to transfer over to medicine. I think it would be a push to get in to be an associate doctor. Some admissions keep looking back even if you do quite well. Unless they state otherwise.

I would suggest you don't do them this year. Some admission are really difficult I would look for another NHS career get your foot in the door say a level 3 apprenticeship and then work upon your A-Levels for several years. You'll need to have all A's and probably stars. All person outside you sphere will see you in an NHS job there will be no gaps.

And then apply for this

Simple answer is no. Whether you struggled because of some reasons or you just didn't do well in A Levels you need to rethink is medicine is actually for you since it has so much work to do. You need to be realistic and at least re-sit your A Levels or a btec before going into university let alone medicine to see if you can handle the work load.

Hello, if this is still relevant then the answer is yes you can but it'll take a lot of hard work and research. You'd have to complete an undergraduate degree in the biomedical field such as biomedicine, neuroscience etc. During this time you'd need to achieve a 2:1 or a 1st consecutively. During your final year apply to study postgrad medicine (but do your research some universities require A-levels some don't) the University of Warwick is a good choice as they don't need A-levels as said on their website but you can also look into QM and other universities. Email them to make sure. Finally, (sounds weird) but email doctors and surgeons so that you can shadow them - references are important. Good Luck !! Sidenote: I don't know why the other repliers were so pessimistic. If push comes to shove do an undergraduate course in the U.K and complete your postgraduate medical degree abroad.
