A-Level help

Why do you specifically want to go into Medicine of all the multitude of healthcare professions?
The only reason I say this is that you appear to be looking for shortcuts. With respect, I am not sure I want to be a treated by a doctor who cut corners in their studying. Similarly, you are going to be going through this every year now for at least the next 10+ years. Exams of greater and greater depth and high stakes and there comes a point where if you don't pass the exam, that is it. Career over.
Some people are destined to go into medicine. Others are not. I am definitely in the not camp but if I were serious about going into health care because presumably you are motivated by helping others, there are a multitude of well paid alternative pathways that don't have quite such a rigorous exam route. Plus, the pay for doctors these days is shockingly poor given the skill level and ongoing self-financed exams you have to take.

You don’t have to shut them down, they are asking for some advice on what to drop as they have been given an opportunity to do what they want to do with the grades they already have. It’s not fair for you to tell them to give up on doing medicine, tbh them doing retakes shows that they are determined even if they didn’t get in the first year which is a good value to have as a doctor.

So i’m retaking some A-Levels this year in hopes of getting into medicine. I’ve found out i’m eligible for contextual offers at most universities, so i’d be retaking either Chemistry AQA or Biology OCR. I needed some help with deciding which one to drop. Biology is a lot more work in terms of memorisation, and I found that I was generally better at biology because of this. However after sitting my A-Levels and looking at my papers, i’ve realised it’s a lot easier to pick up marks in AQA Chemistry than OCR. I lost a lot of marks in Biology despite knowing the content, just because of particular words/phrases, but chemistry are a lot more lenient. So essentially chemistry does feel slightly harder content wise, but i feel like it’s easier to do better in if that makes sense? After achieving As and A*s throughout year 13 I ended up with a B in biology and B in chemistry, being 3-4 marks off an A in chemistry and 2 marks off a C in Biology.
Any help would be appreciated! (:

Hi , I’m not one to speak as I don’t seem to being doing exactly well in my A levels(chem , bio AQA and geo edexel )However I have noticed that chem is very repetitive and I have seen to familiarise myself with the types of questions . I want to work in the healthcare industry and be a dentist !!! I wish you well on your journey to medicine !!!
