If you're interestined in vetinary medicine take a look here http://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/single.htm?ipg=6643 and select veterinary medicine. It gives you a list of courses and the entry requirements - "Entry Standards (Tariff)
 This is the average UCAS tariff score for new first degree students under the age of 21, taken from HESA data for 2006–07. Each student’s examination grades were converted to a numerical score (A level A=120, B=100, etc; Scottish Highers A=72, B=60, etc) and added up to give a total score. HESA then calculated an average score for each university." As the lowest score on the list is 447 points, which is equivalent to more than 3 grade A and 1 grade C at A Level, you need to ask if you can get from Cs and Ds at GCSE to As at A level. You will almost certainly need three of the A levels to be in science / maths subjects. There are other degrees such as veterinary nursing which you can look at.
