Do I have a likely chance for medicine?

I’ve got GCSES of chemistry=8, geography=8, English lit=8, English language=8, maths=7, Rs=7, biology=6, physics=6, Spanish=6. Predicted grades of AAA with an A in EPQ as well. A ucat of 2010 band 1.

I was thinking of applying to Plymouth but I’m not sure anymore. Where do the girlies think I should apply for med.

Academically wise you do have a good chance of getting into medicine, maybe try applying to universities that have a lower UCAT threshold so u definitely get in? I'll attach a list below and you can see what each universities are accepting.
But it does also depend on your volunteering and work experience too by the way.

Hiya, great to hear you're interested in studying at Plymouth 😊

I'm a current student here, although I wouldn't be too sure on medicine application chances as I don't study this subject, however, I can link you to the current entry requirements here (under the apply section) to give you an idea. We do have a medicine student, Gifty, available on our Unibuddy site, where you can ask her any questions about the course, application process, and entry requirements, so I'd recommend starting a conversation!

We also have lots of upcoming open days which I'd highly recommend to give you a feel for the campus, hear about courses and facilities, as well as tour the new Intercity Place building, the home for healthcare students and state-of-the-art equipment, teaching spaces, and resources.

If you have any general questions too about the university or city, feel free to let me know and I'd be happy to help 🙂

Best of luck with your application! 🙌
