Are they changing it so you dont have to have chemistry to be a doctor?

I sort of want to be a doctor and i hate chemistry. Im not doing it for Gcse or A-level.

I remember hearing something about changing it so you dont have to have chemistry. Is this true?Are they changing it so you dont have to have chemistry to be a doctor?Sorry, but I think you've heard wrong.

Chemistry is the one subject vital to studying medicine, you might get away without biology but you need a-level chemistry, it's the basis of what medicine is.

If you don't enjoy chemistry then maybe becoming a doctor just isn't the right career for you.. then again you can specialise in areas such as psychiatry and radiology which require slightly less chemistry so you have to decide whether it would be worth getting the GCSE and a-level as a means to an end..?

Pre-med without organic chemistry? I would be surprised if there wasn't some sort of chemistry prereq.--seems unlikely.

It varys. My dad is a prof. of medicine at Manchester Uni and all applicants to this uni needs to do chemistry,maths, biology and another challenging a-level plus acheive a's and a stars at GCSE. You'll also need to do the UKCAT (clinical aptitude test). At leeds as long as you do 2 sciences and one is biology then it's fine (therefore you could do physics instead of chemistry). I think you really need to check with the universty on their website or something. Good Luck and don't give up. XXX
I really doubt that this is true. A THOROUGH understanding of organic chemistry is the basis of most medicine. Medical practice is much more than the mechanics of all the body's parts. How these parts all work together and keep the person functioning is .... chemistry.
Chemistry is actually more important than biology. Thats because you won't understand the biology in a medical degree without a good knowledge of the basics of chemistry.
