can i go into medicine after an undergrad in Bsc Psychology

I’ve been wondering if it’s possible to do a post graduate degree in medicine after my Bsc in Psychology because I would really like to go down the Psychiatrist route. However it feels unrealistic as I got a CCC in alevels (all humanities) and achieved a 5 in maths and my sciences in gcses. I’m predicted to graduate with a 2:1 or a first from a non-Russell group but I feel like that’s not enough.

Yes it is but you need to trawl through the graduate medicine courses on the uni websites to find out which ones you can do without a bioscience degree. I would go to the actual uni website rather than the 'summaries (eg on medic mind)' as these can have errors. Whilst you're there look at their A level requirements and check the GCSE ones, but there will be some where you can apply with these stats.
However also look at the work experience requirements carefully.
