Will I be able to do Graduate Medicine with a 2:2 and a Masters degree

So I am thinking of applying for medicine,
I have a 2:2 in biomedical science but I am starting a Masters's degree at Imperial College ( I don't know how I even got in I must have been super lucky)

I wondered if it was worth me applying for graduate medicine or if it would be smarter to apply for just standard medicine.
I can understand my options are super limited by my poor quality at my undergrad but I am super open to suggestion and feedback

Give GEM a go. I was in a similar position. 2:2 in Maths, then did an MSc in Global Health to help strengthen my application, ended up with 3 GEM offers. Study hard and ace the GAMSAT and UCAT. It's more than possible.

You can always apply for standard entry too.

Research each uni's admission criteria and apply strategically based on your admission test scores.
