please help

Answer 1

Voluntary work in hospital is a good idea on two counts.

Firstly it will give you a feel for hospital life and secondly it will confirm your choice of career.

Besides doing the voluntary work concentrate on A-Levels and keep your dream alive. Read as much as you can about current medical politics and what is happening to medical student s and Junior Doctors.Medicine is a tough course and an even tougher career.

Answer 2

I don't know how the school system works there, but if you improve your skilss in Biology, Chemisty and Physics then you shouldn't have any problems in going to medicine.

Answer 3

You just need four A levels, and you'll have to do well in the entry tests they've now introduced.
