Subjects for A level 🥲

I want to take medicine or something in biotechnology for uni and we're allowed to only do 3 A Levels... I'm considering A level Biology and Chemistry.... but for the thrid one... should I do A level Math or Physics because some universities require physics as a mandatory subject while some require math.... any advice?

From what I know you can do medicine with any third a level, only a few require maths as a third choice. For stuff like bioengineering alor of universities will ask for maths and some ask for an A* in maths. I’d say Check the requirements on ucas for the course you want to do !!

The thing is, I really haven't got a specific uni I'm looking at, (not sure if I'm going abroad or studying here) but I'll definitely check them out soon! Just wanted to know which one would be the better option. Thanks for the advice though! Cleared my mind a bit... :smile:

I'm not too sure tbh but one of my friends who is applying for medicine (Y13) does bio, chemistry + maths. Maybe maths has more transferable skills if you're not quite sure what you want to do?
