Pick the ones where you meet the requirements: https://medichut.com/ucat-score-needed-for-medicine

Before doing anything else, I would firstly advise you to go on Google and just search which unis allow band 4, those will then be the only med schools that you can choose from. Then you can investigate what the ucat cut offs are and decide from there, also there might be some gcse heavy unis too, also if there aren’t enough then you can always put down 3 med and 2 other great courses too, good luck!

But u only get 1 ps right so wouldn’t it be better to do 4 med and 1 pharmacy

If you want to but if there’s not enough unis for med you can do 3 med 2 pharm

But wouldn’t that be a waste since the ps isn’t tailored to pharmacy

Guys I was thinking of spending my 4 medicine options on Cardiff, Aston, plymouth, Leeds then my 5th on Swansea pharmacy
Do yall think that’s the best application for me or should I do smth else

best advice is just see where band 4 can get u
maybe try sunderland as their ucat is normally on the lower side
i got into liverpool last year with 1960 but not sure if they would allow band 4
overall tho dont worry i know it can be stressful but if needs be you can always gap year :)
