Just wanna see if I picked the right ones, also I’d really appreciate getting any interview tips/student life info from any medics that have attended these unis!

Soton, Glasgow, BSMS, UEA

I’m home UK, contextual (except Glasgow)

AAA predicted, A for an EPQ
I meet gcse requirements (none of these score them)

I’m going to start interview prep pretty soon, lmk what you think. Pretty nervous

I am also a young carer. can someone tell me if im likely to get an interview anywhere?

Hi guys. Is it ok to apply to kcl emdp with 2140 b2 and AAB predicted, but 777776666 gcses. And I’m also a young carer.

Ok so debating applying for UK medicine. I'd like to get on the competent authority pathway, which means I need to get an FY1 placement. If you graduate in the UK, how hard is it to get onto the Foundation programme as an international student? Thanks

I’m applying as a resit (CCD, pred 2 a* 1 a) but I didn’t know there was a mitigating circumstances form to submit by the 10th of September which I missed because I didn’t even know if I wanted to go there. I tried calling and emailing a bunch but no response. Is it worth applying, I don’t want to risk it but also don’t want to be out of London pls help!

Hi All,

I have always wanted to move into medicine, every 6 months or so does the bug catch me. I'm looking for advice from any other's that have done it as a second career.

I am 25 years old, and I said above, every 6 months or so, the feeling of doing it comes back. I working in financial services and are well paid so it would be a significant drop in disposable income.

My question if anyone else has done it, how did it go?

I would need to complete an access course - are these as well respected as A levels etc? AI seems to indicate no, especially if they are online.

If I did go ahead, could I work part time or is there any additional funding for adult leaners to help meet my liabilities? I understand its an intensive course.

Keen to understand other peoples experience whilst I ponder whether its all worth it.

hello everyone!
i was just wondering since interviews usually start from december onwards when should i start preparing?
Ive already made some notes for general questions they can ask but im not sure when to start “hardcore prep” since i also have mocks coming up again at the start of november.

I would really appreciate if anyone could help with mmi interviews for exeter liverpool leicester!

If I submit my medicine application on UCAS on the 15th, and want to switch one of them to another med choice a couple of days later, would I be able to? I know there is a 14 day window, but does this apply for medicine too?

Im an intl student from Ontario Canada
UCAT 2160 b2
94% predicted avg (apparently A*AA equivalent or smth if that helps)

I've chosen St. Andrews (Canadian programme), leeds, and SGUL so far, is it good?

Idk whether I should pick a safer option (dundee, aston, belfast??) or a more risky one (leicester, bsms, uea, southampton) for my last one.
I'm also not sure what is most strategic, a lot of unis dont rlly weigh academics for intl students

PLEASE lmk if you guys have any insights or advice!!

I've applied to Sunderland for medicine and gotten their Interview Selection Tool (IST).

However, the experiences i have are either Shadowing, or non public-facing experiences, such as volunteering as an intern in a lab.

Do they have to be medical experiences?

Can I talk about non medical things?

Help.
