    Think you can skip straight through to 1st med with 2 sciences, provided you do well enough in them.

    They will probably offer you the 5 year if you have Chemistry and Biology.You could still choose to do the 6 year though if you wanted,a lot do.

    No you don't do maths and you'll never see calculus again, although you do have a physics module in foundation year. Good luck!
