Studying abroad, will it stop me from going med school?

Hi, so I'm studying mandarin for my GCSEs and I passed my HSK making me eligible to study in an international school in China for my A-levels. But I need to know if this will reduce my chances of being eligible to study medicine and become a psychiatrist. Any advice?

It could depend on if your fee status changes. Medicine has limited international places so if you no longer qualify for home fees (due to residency not just citizenship) then you may find it much more competitive when you apply to study medicine in the UK.
