Will I be able to get into pharmacy

I’m going into y13 and my current grades are A*AB on the higher end but AAC on the lower end. I’ve done a week of work experience in a pharmacy before, I mentored a younger student in my school before and have helped out a club before. I did the Cambridge chem challenge and I’m in the student council but I haven’t actually done anything including it.
Just wondering if I should just focus on my grades or should I try and get more work experience or volunteering work. I’ve reached out to some volunteering places but they either didn’t need volunteers or just ghosted me after an interview.
Any advice would help, thanks!

Absolutely - you need AAB - BBB depending on University and you've done so well to get a week's work experience in a pharmacy. I couldn't get one despite a lot of effort. Just need at least a B in Chemistry and one other science. You'll be interviewed and so you'll need to brush up on the pharmacy standards, but otherwise you look good to go.
