Are my GCSE grades good enough to apply to medicine?

Hello, I am hoping to apply to medicine for university, however I'm not sure if I should due to my GCSE results. My results for English literature and English language are terrible. I am worried that my English Literature grade may make it very difficult for me to secure a place at a Russel Group University for medicine, since most students applying to these Universities all have 8s and 9s. For English language I was 1 mark off a 7 and I am requesting a remark. For A levels, I am planning to do Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Biology.

Here are my grades:
Geography: 8
Biology: 9
Chemistry: 9
Physics: 9
German: 9
English Language: 6
English Literature: 5
Computer Science: 8
Mathematics: 9

Does anybody think I have a chance of getting into a Russel Group University for medicine with these GCSE grades? Should I request a resit for English literature?

Thank you

Amazing results, well done. Those grades are definitely good enough for medicine. I would advise against resitting English literature as this will detract from your A levels. Good idea to get a remark in English language but English lit is not key! Get some healthcare related work/ voluntary experience, do something academic ( podcasts, lectures, essay comps) to show your interest beyond the syllabus. Don’t worry about your English literature, honestly. Well done, such good results
