hi everyone,

i have completed my gcse's from england...if some of you are not familiar with this then it is the last exams at secondary school.

So im thinking of applying at universities in europe or asia! which universities do you reccomend?

but i have heard that my gcse are not good enough qualifications to get into a med school....so do you think that i should do year 12 too?

im just planning on doing chem and bio for yr12 as i have already acheievd good marks in english and maths!

I'm afraid that GCSE's are not the last secondary school exams - A levels are. And, yes, education to approximately that standard will be required for entry to most medical schools worldwide: you're unlikely to get very far with GCSE's alone.

yes i know that thats why i have chosen to do year 12 also so i can be up to date with evrything! what happned was that i used to live in the us but then moved to uk and i had no idea what the educational system was there...so i finished my gcse's and started my a levels but then i stopped to moved to the us...i finally know what the educational system is so thats why i am doing 12th grade now....i still have time so i thought i can do 12th grade then go into medicine
