Access course or foundation year ofr pharmacy

Could someone please help me? I've started an Access to Science course, and it's going okay so far. However, I need to achieve all distinctions to qualify for Pharmacy. I'm currently debating whether I should switch to a foundation year for bio pharmaceuticals science , where I would need to get 70% to apply for Pharmacy through UCAS. I'm really unsure about which path is the right one to take, and I still have time to make the change before it's too late. This decision is really stressing me out, and I don't know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated.

Foundation years aren't standardised and are designed to allow you progress to the full degree course at the same uni. It won't necessarily be accepted by other unis. The Access course is likely to give you more options.
