    Hi, I'm doing my lc next year and am only doing one science subject (biology) and was wondering what colleges let you do medicine with only one science subject, I know ucd does because I saw their prospectus online, do any others do this as well?

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    the rules can always change. If there's upset people over the HPAT or 550 thing in the leaving....who knows

    Would you consider taking up chemistry?
    You would then have the option of applying to TCD, RCSI, NUIG, UCC.

    You should think about taking up possibly Ag. Science, one of the easier to learn in the space of a year.

    or the physics/chemistry combination...although that will only get you into some of the colleges. Physics/Chem is supposed to be the ordinary level bits out of the 2 courses....so I was told.

    If you are doing an extra science on your own check out how you will do the experiments or if you want to chance getting away without

    Hmm, when I need medicine first I go to my doctor for a prescription, then usually a pharmacy or chemist...

    UCD will take you for medicine in their 6 years course with only biology..I only did biology for my LC and i have medicine in UCD down as one of my choices in the CAO...

    Yeah that's true... and I remember something about they don't take Biology and Ag. Science as two sciences and definitely not phys/chem and physics or chem separately... (obviously xD)

    Good luck with it anyway! I emailed round and they send out prospectuses (prospecti??) if you want. That's how I got a few anyway.

    You know there is an enormous amount of chemistry as well as physics in the medecine courses. It would be extremely hard to keep up in the course without having a good knowledge of chemistry etc..
