A levels Subjects for Nursing/Medicine

Are A-Levels in Psychology, Environmental Science, and Sociology a better choice than T-Levels in Science and Healthcare for someone applying in medical field, particularly nursing/medicine?

med student here, I can't really speak for nursing but for medicine in the UK you pretty much need biology a-level. Bio paired with psych will have some options for medicine but you really want Chem + Bio + Any third subject.

Realistically, you will need at least 2 core-science A levels for Medicine - Chemistry, Biology, Math, Physics.
