Please help!!
Hello! I am 16 and a student studying Applied Science with Technology Level 2 Certificate and only doing this a year. After that, I will be doing Applied Science Level 3 Extended Diploma for the next 2 years. In 2026, I want to study medicine or pharmacy/pharmacology but I don’t know what course to study and what career to proceed in the future! I know it’s early as well but can someone suggest a university for me to go??

You will need A level Chemistry for most Pharmacy courses.

I have done applied science and hopefully want to med, I got DDD and I’ve applied to biomed in RG’s. I know GEM is much harder but you could potentially look into medicine foundation years- Bristol and Kent? I’m not too sure about other unis

The 6 year course at Bristol is NOT a 'Foundation course'.
Its designed only as a Widening Participation pre-year to the main 5-year course and has very exact grade / quals requirements.
Realistically, if you are not taking A levels, Medicine is in 99% of applicant situations, a non-starter.

regardless of it only being accessible for WP it is still a foundation course. All foundation med courses require you to be eligible for their WP criteria
