medicine

I hopeful intended to study medicine, but unfortunately got AAABB in my highers exam and was told by my teachers not to apply for medicine even if i take a gap year and although i meet some of the criteria for widening access i don't think it could apply to me since I've lived in Scotland for only a year and a half... so any suggestions?

If you meet WP criteria, then I am pretty sure you meet the requirements of Aberdeen, Dundee, Glasgow and St Andrews, so check the websites.
Also, you will not get funding for Scottish unis if only been in Scotlans a year and a half, I think, so English med school make offers based on AHs, in a lot of cases.
Check all the websites carefully to see if you meet WP requirements and what grades are required in this situation

If you meet the entry requirements, apply.

If you dont, you will always wonder what might have happened if only you had.

Then you don't meet the requirements? RUK applicants have WP flags at Scottish unis, so what would your fee status be? International is more difficult, but worth an email to ask, I'd have thought?
