Med school application

Hey guys,

I want to apply to med school as an international and feel like i should do the graduate route since my UCAT wasn’t so good. I have the grades that will basically let me apply to most universities without much fuss but do you think this is a waste of time? Like should I not do 3 years then 4 and should I just do UCAT again next year and hope for a better mark. It’s the same length both ways so I feel like I should just do the apply to a different course. If so does anyone recommend what course to have competitive advantage for graduate route?
