I found unit 1 a little dry and to be fair, a decent chunk of unit 1 does lay the groundwork for some chapters in unit 3&amp;amp;4 (especially the first chapters). I think unit 2 has more in common with 3/4 though. I definitely found 3/4 more enjoyable than 1/2. (To be honest I found all 1/2 subjects pretty dry). But if you find chemistry not that interesting already, then its probably not a good idea to pursue 3/4. As a personal experience, I dropped Japanese 1/2 because I found it very boring (all there was were memorising specific vocab that you pretty much forget after taking the test/sac) and if I still did it, I believe I would have got a worse atar score. I agree with Lear completely and would recommend checking the study design as well.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;I don't think there is a consensus of which pathway is better but one of my careers counselors said that the graduate pathway (where you have to do the GAMSAT) the best option but I decided to take a gap year and do the UCAT (because I fear doing the GAMSAT). However the school counselor was pretty biased and just said that the undergraduate pathway is useless. On the other hand, I had several medical students (present and past) who have told me that undergraduate is better. Its subjective.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It really depends on which pathway you want to pursue. I recommend you take the issue up with your careers counselor before dropping your chemistry subjects instantly and discuss with them.

However the school counselor was pretty biased and just said that the undergraduate pathway is useless.

I'd definitely recommend trying to stick it out for the rest of the year and definitely as everyone said check out the study design as that has all the useful, up to date info and talk to your teacher about how you feel and get their views. Many people advise you to always keep chem handy but there always many pathways, it just may be more time-consuming to get to your desired course. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, you can sit UCAT in Year 12 and any year after that which is great.

Do you need chemistry for medicine?

If you want to study medicine, it's crucial that you pick the right A-levels. Entry requirements do vary, but to get a medical degree you must study chemistry at A-level. There are also certain other essential qualifications you should be looking at depending on the particular university you want to go to.

Can you get into medical school without taking chemistry?

What prerequisites do most medical schools require? Most medical schools agree on the basic elements of pre-medical education. Generally, the minimum course requirements include one year each of biology, general (inorganic) chemistry, organic chemistry, physics, and the related lab work for each.

Can you do medicine with only biology?

If you don't take A-Level Biology, around 19 Med Schools say they will consider you with Chemistry plus Physics or Maths as a second subject. For around 16 Med Schools, A-Level Chemistry isn't an absolutely essential requirement and they will consider you with Biology plus another science subject or Maths.

Is there a lot of chemistry in medicine?

Chemistry finds many applications in the healthcare field. Development of medicines involves many complicated chemistry processes. Chemistry is used to create materials used in surgery. Much of laboratory testing is based on chemistry techniques.
