How far back could poor GCSEs set me in medicine?

Thread Starter How far back could poor GCSEs set me in medicine? Follow 12 minutes ago 12m ago I'm in year 11 going to sit my GCSEs in about a month and I'm worried that I might not do well enough for medicine which I would like to pursue. I am predicted 6s in almost everything and I believe I could get 6s-7s in my GCSEs but even if it fits a universities "minimum requirements" I'm worried that it could set me back in the application proccess. I am setting up good work experience and volunteering and if I work hard then I believe I will have very good extra/supercurriculars and recieve very good A level results (the reason I am not doing better in GCSEs is result of procrastination) so would GCSEs in that range set me back? Would it be possible/benificial to resit GCSEs? How bad it?
