When you take into account the fact that there are only 32 medical schools in the UK, you can see just how much competition there really is for prospective medical students! The end result is that even intelligent and high-performing students may struggle to secure a place at the most popular universities, so the pressure is on to both achieve highly and impress in your application.
As well as helping doctors, we also have a long history of supporting students in applying to university. Whether you’re struggling to write your personal statement or you’re nervous about your interviews, we can help.
Medical School Interview – A good interview could be the deciding factor in whether or not a university decides to offer you a place. Our intensive small group Medical School Interview Course will help you to prepare for your interview, putting you in the right frame of mind and teaching you tricks and tips for giving a good interview.
UCAS Personal Statement – Your personal statement gives you just 47 lines and 4000 characters to ’sell yourself’ to the university and convince them that you’re a worthwhile candidate to call to interview. Our personal statement experts can work with you to either augment and improve your existing statement or help you to create a new one from scratch.
Medical School Admissions Tests – The majority of UK medical schools use the UKCAT and BMAT to help decide which students to make an offer to. We offer both UKCAT and BMAT courses to help make sure you are fully prepared for the questions you can expect to face.
