Year 12 path to MPharm

MPharm requires Chem and another science, so you'll be fine.
Just remember that MPharm courses are all accredited as equal by the GPhC - there is therefore no 'better' course, and RG certainly doesn't not mean anything significant. The NHS will not care where you trained, and neither will your future patients.
You do not need w/exp in a Pharmacy, but this would help you be certain is is the career you want. Any sort of hospital volunteer work is useful for finding out more about the NHS, and any customer-service experience (retail, hospitality etc) or volunteer work at a care-home or special school etc, is good for those 'tell me how you dealt with a tricky person/situation' type interview questions.

Hi,
I'm currently a year 12 student with a goal of doing MPharm in Uni after my A-Levels, and I was just wondering if anyone had any extra advice so I can start strengthening my chances of getting to do MPharm at Uni.
The unis which I would probably would like to go to are University of Manchester, University of Nottingham, University of Leeds or any other Russel group uni preferably. I am currently taking A-Level Chemistry, A-Level Biology and A-Level French. (I know French is quite a random choice but I wasn't sure what else to pick) and I'm pretty sure all those unis would be fine with these subjects (if not please let me know). I achieved 999998777 at GCSE and I am also hoping to achieve high grades for A-Levels too.
So, what else can I do now to start strengthening my chances in getting into MPharm? I have started to apply to extracurriculars but I was wondering if there is anything more I should do, and if there are extracurriculars specifically for MPharm??
Thanks!

I am currently doing the same A Levels as you!! i cannot believe i found someone else that is also doing a science combination with French. Have you found a list of extracurriculars yet?

Wow I have never met anyone with the same combo as me! How are you personally finding it?
And no, so sorry. I think I’m gonna try focus on super curriculars anyways since they are more useful for university!

Hii, I did Bio, Chem, French for A-Levels and I'm now doing MPharm at Keele uni. Most unis specify either bio or chem + another science (so your bio and chem are perfect). There's no specific extracurricular for MPharm but it would be useful to get work experience in a pharmacy if you can. If you can't find anywhere that will accept you for shadowing, you can volunteer in any patient-facing environment such as a care home etc. But don't worry about it too much if you can't! Pharmacy schools don't expect you to do anything extra! Also, it doesn't matter where you get your MPharm from so long as it's a GPhC accredited uni (so doesn't have to be Russell Group) as that won't affect your job prospects in the future

I am enjoying it, but sometimes tho- it can be a bit difficult trying to manage the content for science and revision for french. Yess, Iv realised super curriculars are a lot more important. But im not too sure as to which ones?

Hii, what kind of supercurriculars would you recommend. Also, congratss!!

What super curriculars did you do? Do you have any book reccomendations?

Hii, First of all Congratulations. Also, which supercurriculars would you recommend/did you complete. E.b to write about in ps and interviews.
