yes!
i'm in medical school right now and there are quite a couple people who have not done a level bio
however it might be a little harder in terms on understanding the content but not impossible!
For Medicine, Chemistry is by far the most important subject.

Hi there,

Yes, you can still study medicine with A-levels in Chemistry, Psychology, and Maths at some universities. While many medical schools require Biology, some, like the UEA, prioritise Chemistry as the core subject. UEA’s medical program requires AAA, including Chemistry or Biology/Human Biology: https://www.uea.ac.uk/course/undergraduate/mbbs-medicine

It’s a good idea to review individual university requirements to confirm your eligibility, as some schools may accept your combination, while others might ask for additional qualifications or coursework.

Best of luck,

yeah i know but instead of bio they choose physics and i cannot do physics it just so hard for me, that why i am worried because i know chemistry and maths are sciences but i am not sure about psychology, i might just have to pick another course to study
