GCSE’s enough for Medicine

For my GCSE’s i got grades, 8,7,6,6,6,6,6,5,4.
8 I got in R.E.
My 5 was in english Lit. And 4 was english language. I am hoping to resit my english Language exam in june, and get a grade 6/7. 🤞

And the Current alevels i am taking are: Biology, Chemistry and Psychology. and an EPQ
Do i have a chance to get into a russell group to do medicine, at uni?

I believe you do have a chance to do medicine, just make sure during your a levels that you're getting top grades as it will look very appealing to unis!

If theres anything else I can help with, just ask!

You'll need to look at the minimum grade requirements. Also look at the uni course selection criteria & only put on your application where you meet their selection criteria - otherwise you've wasted an application. Some select on GCSE grades, some on predicted A grades, some on UCAT scores & some on a combination.
