Hey so I’m studying biomedical science also known as biomedicine. One of my very large modules is microbiology which might interest you. Also biomed would be great course for you if you want a science degree which can help you get in to a broad range of things. You can definitely go in to research with it as it is very lab based. I’m sure I have a biotechnology module coming up soon too which is what you said you’re also interested in. And I didn’t need a level chemistry at all for this degree just needed biology I think. Check out biomedical science for sure, you may like it or you might not but it’s best to explore.
