Does Cambridge value a fourth A-level over an EPQ? If so, does it matter what the fourth A-level is? Should it be something related to medicine?

Thanks

Cambridge is the only med school that requires biology, chemistry and maths or physics. 4th A-levels do not give you an advantage at any medical school apart from QMUL which uses UCAS points. EPQ's for medicine are usually just something to talk about on your personal statement and at interviews.
