This video I want to talk about something dear to me which is why I believe I failed in my first round of applications. It's something which I thought about for a very long time and always brought me a sense of regret. But now almost 5 years later I think of it as a great learning experience and it shaped me into the person who was able to get accepted to medical school after his B.sc.! Ultimately it came down to being underprepared for (or really just not understanding) how important it was to practice for the UKCAT and Interview and also how to strategically apply to universities. I try to cover all of that in this video and I hope it helps you guys avoid the mistakes I made!
All the best guys :)

Can u pls do vid on ur experience at kcl bc i've seen a lot of negative reviews so far.
I realize it's quite randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Zakai Gatlin Flixportal :P
@Declan Kaiden Thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it!!
@Zakai Gatlin Glad I could help :)
I remember watching your videos over a year ago, looking for tips and advice. Super nervous and had doubts about getting into medical school, didn't know whether I was going to make it. It was a slow nerve-wrecking process from exams to interviews. Now I'm a first year medical student in the second semester. Thank you for everything
CONGRATS! my absolute pleasure ❤️
hey, how's it going? I am thinking about applying, I just wanna know how u feel, Is it manageable
Omg are you a fourth year student now? Thats super cool😮😮😮
Hey yall. Im currently in 2nd rotation (OBGYN) in 5th year :)
@@izzahfarhana7434 super super cool I’m planning to apply this year, hope all goes well..
back listening for the 2nd time and i want to say it has been an era man....quality and editing developed so much...this is inspiring
Thank you for your tips. I'll most likely be applying in 4 years time, so I hope I'll be ready by then :)
Thank you for sharing this with us. And most importantly this video shows how much you have overcome your failure by truly reflecting. Thank you! I am applying for 2021, wish me luck!
Thank you so much for the amazing tips!! really appreciate all the hard work you put into these videos to help people like me. You come across very genuine and helpful which is truly inspirational :)
Thank you so much shiv I'm glad you like the content! It is a lot of work but I find it very rewarding and fun as well. So it's a win-win for everyone :)
Very informative and helpful. And honest. God bless you
Your videos are SOO amazing and helpful!! Really in depth and covering such good points, thank you so much for these, we really really appreciate them, thanks for your hard work :)
Thank you so much Sadia that's amazing feedback!!
One of the most helpful videos I’ve watched!!! Thank you
The message and the end really helps, thank you
Hey Kharma Medic, I really love and appreciate your videos. I searched up videos from you channel related to the IB but didn't any other than one mashed up with A-levels. I along with many IB students would appreciate it if you could post a few videos on how you managed to get 43 predicted from the IB and what tips you would give to students that are currently doing since it's a incredibly challenging course for many of us. Thank you for your time and effort into creating these awesome videos for us!
I know this is an old video but thanks for speaking supportively which I think other TH-camrs lack. During times of stress your videos really calm the nerves. Keep up the great work.
Omolade, thanks so much for your comment that was very humbling. Not everything goes perfectly the first time and it's important to not be scared and think it's all over. Hard work and dedication can pay off, even if it takes a bit longer :)
I'm really glad my videos can help you relax, if that's the case, feel free to binge watch all of them 😉 only joking!
Have a great day :)
Kharma Medic 😂😂thanks for the advice! Plus I’ve already started binge watching 👀😂
I acc needed this rn😭😭 thank you!!!
I'd totally recommend doing practice interviews. all of my interviews were MMI so I did a practice MMI and I....fucked it LOL I hate the whole interview setting and I messed up a fair few of the stations, but all the mock examiners there gave me great tips and I did much better in my real MMIs. I feel like your worst interview performance will always be your first one, so if you make your first one a mock that doesn't count, you're really improving your chances when it comes down to the real thing
good luck to everyone and be prepared med school is HARD I'm a second year who is struggling ahaha kill me
I’ve just been rejected. I applied for graduate entry. Now I’m taking a year out to teach science before reapplying next year.
Hey sorry to hear man. I know it's not the easiest of times but taking a year out isn't always a bad thing. It sounds like you'll be giving back to the community and making the most of it. Good luck!
How are you doing now with the applying?
i really pray for your success, trust God that everything does happen for a reason. God Bless you
Did you get in?
Wow, I literally experienced the exact same things when I went to my first Medicine interviews in 2017! I thought I was so outgoing and social, only to break down at the MMIs. This year I'm actually gonna prepare hard
Prepare really hard - it's very worth it!
I don't know how I found ur channel..
But thank God I found it,u 're hard working and a helping guy ..really appreciate ur work done.
So from last 4months I have not missed any of ur video!!
Keep on motivating us dr nasir..thank u so much 🙏
Thank you so much ☺️
@@KharmaMedic ❤❤
God Bless you and your success, thanks for your advice
This is so helpful! Thankyou!
watching this now, this is gold
Reapplying again this year and rewatching you're videos all over again, just gives me so much hope. King's is defo one of my choices this year inshallah. Thanks kharma medic, you're tips are helpful as always!
Good luck!
@@KharmaMedic 😆 why does it feel like a celebrity DMd me? 😂
Wow so you did your UKCAT when i applied for secondary school - you’re quite old, jkjk 😂 Oh and btw your UCAT vids are great, deffo gonna help me this autumn 🙏
ahahaha older than some! Glad you like them, there's more coming over the summer 🙂
Kharma Medic cant wait then 😊
@@_-_-__-_-_5428 can I get an update?
Levi ooh I decided not to apply for medicine cuz I felt it wasn’t the right thing for me. Did a helluva lot of research into it and I figured I wouldn’t be able to handle the crazy amount of stress that comes with working as a medic; extremely rewarding but stressful nonetheless - ended up applying for optometry and received 4 offers from my 5 choices. Hopefully depending on my grades I receive for the a levels I didn’t do I’ll be starting uni at the end of sept :)
@@_-_-__-_-_5428 can i get an update if you dont mind
Your video is very inspiring and whenever I watch it I feel like being in the medical school
Please can you do a video about the fees for international students
thank you so much 😁 I'll be making a video on that soon!
Kharma Medic pls do make it quick😭
Can also give info about admission process for international students.🙏
Applying to unis in the UK seems so complicated. Here in Austria we don't have interviews really. You either go into a degree that has no limit of how many students they accept (simply bc not that many ppl go into the degree and experience of how many they can take on) or the ones that have limits (bc there are too many applicants) in which case you have an entrance exam.
To get into med school here there's a huge entrance exam bc obviously a lot want to enter. I have a couple of fiends that are trying it for the 2nd/3rd time this year. Ppl study around 6-12months for this exam. Seems very intense ngl but this is only the case in med school. Other entrance exams aren't THAT extreme as far as I am aware.
Personally I study Technical Chemistry at Vienna University of Technology. My degree doesn't have a limit (TU Wien is known to be rather hard so more ppl that want to study chemistry just go to University of Vienna). All I had to do was was apply, then do a little self-assesment test (just for myself) and then had a "talk" with a professor and a student who gave me advice and just cleared up any question to make sure we know what we're getting into and that's it.
Welcome to the UK complicated for no good reason
plus a university list of med schools that don't care much about cat would be really helpful
I have to book my Ucat before August 3rd and just started revising. Hopefully I have enough time!
mine is on the 3rd and i started today
How did it go
Konstantinos B mine isn’t until the 17th September that’s all I could get a space for so 🤞 I have more time to revise
Hello, I didn't get into any medschools this year either and I'm planning on doing a molecular biology and genetics major in METU. I am wondering what I should do during these 4 years to get into a medschool in UK?
Im proud of you
Hey , can you make a video about your Medicine interview experience e.g. at Cambridge. Also what do you think were the main factors that made you get in the second time round. Thanks
Hey Pierre! I talk about my medicine interview experiences in one of my earlier videos th-cam.com/video/rZrofVb67PY/w-d-xo.html. Hmm, I would say 1. very high UKCAT score 2. increased experience in the medical field gained over the years 3. my ability to perform well in interviews. Also as a side note, I just wanted to get into medical school more than ever and I spent the better part of 8 months studying day in and day out (I'm talking 6-8h a day) on all aspects of the UK and Canadian med school applications with little time for anything else. It was a big sacrifice but worth it in the end 😊
Kharma Medic thanks for your reply:) Did you apply to Cambridge the second time round as well ?
no worries! No I didn't. My sister studied in Cambridge so I had visited multiple times and realized I was destined to be in a big city! Second time I really wanted to be in LDN because that is also where my sister works and all my friends are! I was willing to go to Bristol thought because I really liked the school and I thought I would be able to fit into the semi-big city well!
Brave attitude
Your voice is sweet
Thanks raza! 😊
How are you funding the undergrad course as a second degree?
your voice so so soooooo sweet 😍
Hi! I’m a high schooler, a found my new passion in the medical field. I’m based in Scotland, Edinburgh and apparently in the Dundee it’s ranked as #1, however I’m really intrigued about Kings College. Scotland’s Unis are free, so is it worth it paying for Kings college? Is kings college have the best outcome? Are satisfied with your time in kings college?
What is your or other people opinion?
Thank you 😊
My country: 2 medical schools that offer premed and 1 that is easier but is “reserved” for a particular group of people.
Your videos are so helpful! I’m currently studying biomed and will be going into final year in September! I’ll be doing UKCAT over the summer, but do you have any tips for writing a strong personal statement? I’m hoping to do dentistry at kings 😊 thank you x
Thank you 😊 Yeah I have a couple of videos about it on the channel, check them out! Good luck in your exams 👌🏼
Kharma Medic thanks so much!
Hey man! I’m applying to graduate medicine and I’m a EU citizen but finished undergrad in the USA. I have everything ready or in the process but I don’t know what to do with a levels. I don’t have IB so what are my options will I have to take them now? Even after I have a BA in biochemistry?
Lol the gem emoji at 3:38 made me giggle 😆
just got rejected uCL pre interview. Waiting for cmabirgde rejection on 25th Jan. Afraid that I won't get in remaining 2 as well. However, I feel that this may really give me an opportunity to re evaluate
good luck! keep going. you got this!
Hi! This was a really helpful video so thanks for sharing it! I was wondering, how do you answer when you're asked: why do you want to be a doctor?
Hey there glad you liked it! That is a pretty difficult question to answer now over text. I plan to make an entire video series on all the most common interview questions so it will come soon! But until then, there really isn't one right answer. The correct way to go about this is to soul search deep within you and actually realize why you want to! It doesn't have to be something profound but it needs to be true to you. And then you can talk about how your life experiences built upon that reason or how that reason caused you to go out and find or encounter life experiences that solidified your reasons for you. Something like that!
Thank you for the quick reply! I'll keep that in mind while formulating my own answer. :-)
Hey i would like to ask where would you apply with 3As in A levels and a UCAT score of 660. Thanks in advance
Hey there man! I’ve sat my Scottish highers and are preparing for my UKCAT super early as I think I’m booking for sometime in September! Aside from academics I’m taking part in duke of Edinburgh, volunteering at a care home and carrying out duties as being head boy. Is there any other little things you would suggest I take part in or take up over the summer?, great video as always by the way!
Hi Taylor :) It sounds like you are doing a good amount of extracurriculars. The only thing I would suggest is to maybe read some medicine related books to give yourself a better understanding of what being a doctor might be like ('doing right' is ethics focused and very good, 'when breath becomes air' is an amazing recounting of experiences by a neurosurgeon). Reading books like this can better prepare you for the interview when the time comes. Also just speak to doctors if you can about their work, why they enjoy it, any downsides, etc..! Lastly, find anything you enjoy doing, and just do it consistently. WHen it comes time for interviews or writing your PS, you'll be able to reflect on it well and with passion!
Enjoy your summer :)
Can you please make a video on how you take notes in medical school??
Hey Sam! I have actually tried recording that video twice now and I get so muddled up in my method 😂 I'll definitely take another stab at it!
please graft through it would love to see
Hey just a question about kcl- does it use the SJT part of the ucat for making offers /interviews ..?
Can't remember off the top of my head! Check the website 🙂
hello! i was wondering what subjects you did for IB? Also , is IB considered as A levels? like instead of doing AS ( which im currently doing ) and A2 would IB count as the same and is only a one year course? thank you in advance!❤
I want to apply for GEM and I am also considering to apply King’s College but also in Warwick, Southampton and Queen Mary’s. I read the entry requirements for GEM in King’s is 2:1 in a science degree and they take into account the UKCAT. GCSEs and A-levels are not taken into account for GEM according to the entry requirements website. Is this really true ?
If it says it on the website it's probably true. Call them to double check !
Hey man great video! I have a predicted 42 in the IB with 7s in all three sciences and I was planning to apply to those exact unis. Your grades were above the cut-off for all of them so do you know if there was a major factor as to why you were rejected from the first three unis? I mean I know that your ukcat scores were avg but anything else your application was lacking in?
Hey Zain, thank you so much :) Congrats on the prediction, that's amazing! That's a good question... and to be honest, although i believe my UKCAT played a very large role, looking back on it my PS might have been too cheesy or surface level. It didn't express an ideal understanding of what being a doctor would be like, nor did I explain my motivations well. And after those two things sometimes it's just down to luck. I really believe that since there are so many applicants with such great grades and experiences, sometimes even if you are a good candidate you just won't make it for whatever reason and I think that's pretty unfair but sometimes that is the reality of it! Regardless, you put yourself in the best possible position you can to increase your chances, and then the rest is up to chance!
Kharma Medic Would you believe a UCAT score of 620 alongside a BAND 1 in SJ would be fine. I’m not applying to prestigious unis, but do you think the band 1 will have a major impact
amazing tips to take care of and a really helpful video
do you have any idea of what an average score would be requiredfor ukcat to get into university of edinburgh, do they even consider the ukcat when looking at which students should be selected.
Thanks Aditya! I have no idea! What is considered a competitive score changes each year. You need to do thorough research to make sure you know where you are applying !
thanks
Are 5A*s and 3As and a B
If I get a 45 on IB and excel at extracurricular then can I get in(also if I get exceptional bmat/ucat scores
Wish me luck im applying at KINGS COLLEGE
Bcos they didnt have a base line to ukcat score
Good luck!!
Tnx
Did you get in??
How did it go?
Did ya make it?
Hey, can you help with the personal statement?
My GCSEs scores are quite bad and I really don't know which university to apply....please suggest me some...
I don't know of any off the top of my head but search each individual school and check their GCSE requirements so you know which ones you can apply to!
@@KharmaMedic does KCL gives more importance to GCSE rather than ukcat?? Thank you for your time 😊
Your videos are really good
@@drneetasharma1082 did u apply yet? I hope you got in🙏
You spoke about not studying only the sciency subjects. I asked SO many people what the best choices would be for A level and everyone said ‘just do the sciences’. I’m starting sixth form next Tuesday with Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Further Maths. Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love STEM but I’d probably love RS or something along those lines too.
I have done a wide range of subjects at GCSE (I’ve got 11 GCSEs) - I can elaborate on this if it helps. But do I need to carry on this variation to A level as well? Also I’m doing an EPQ not sure what about 🤷🏽♀️
Help?
Hey! Check what subjects are REQUIRED by universities to apply to medicine and 100% do those. Then there are subjects like math and physics which can help improve your application if you do well in them as it shows a different kind of thinking. Other than that do something that interests you and do well in it. After all, you have to score highly in your A levels to apply for med so do something you know you can do well in! I don't know what RS or EPQ are?

Kharma Medic RS is Religious Studies - you may have heard people refer to it as RE.
EPQ is the Extended Project Qualification whereby you have to write (1000 words or so I think) about your own research regarding a topic that interests you. Gives you something to show your passion about, something to write about in your PS and refer to in your interview
@@SanaKhan-wf4ec
Hi Sana,
Sorry to butt into your conversation but I thought I should let you know that you can chose RS as your 4th subject if your school allows you to take 4. With the new A level reforms most schools have scrapped external AS exams and only allow students to do 3 subjects from the beginning but from the sound of it your school is letting you do 4. In this case if they allow you to drop it at the end of year 12 (unless you wish to carry on with 4) it would not be a problem. I did Bio Chem Maths and RS for AS, dropped RS at A2 and also did the EPQ. Totally workable combination.
Hania Arain
No need to say sorry sis, I need guidance from anyone who can offer it to me through their experience!
I’ve been told that Further Maths is really hard but my dilemma is that I really love Maths. I guess I want to attempt it and see how hard it is for myself. Would you suggest I do a 5 subject thing with RS just to check it out for a while or just leave it as a back up option if Further Maths doesn’t suit me?
I really want to get medicine I’m scared I’m so anxious about not getting in cause I don’t want to do anything else do u have any advice
Hey Ariyibi 🙂
Do some good solid research so you know all the different steps of the application and then just work on them one by one. You can do it!
i didn't know you took the IB!!!!
And IGCSE's!
Kharma Medic which IB subjects did you take and what were your grades?!
Can anyone tell me which unis don't really focus on ucat I beg someone answers me
After getting your degree from Canada did you get a job on the basis of that degree and worked while studying medicine?
Hi kharma medic, do you have an idea of the cut off threshold UkCAt score for the graduate medicine course (A102) at Kings? I have heard mixed things
Hey! I actually have no idea. It likely changes year to year and depends on how competetive the applications are. You need to do some solid research to make sure you apply to the right uni's based on your application strengths and weaknesses. Maybe call up the uni and ask? Also search google for info given out based on the freedom of information act. Good luck!
What would you consider as safe choices?
I think I'm only going to apply to one elite med school and then apply to other ones that aren't "pristeige" cause let's be honest elite med schools are more expensive anyway.
Hi I know this is late however I am hoping you can reply, I can only apply to university of Warwick graduate entry this year and will this be ok to only apply for the one university with UCAS? No one talks about this. 🥺 I know I will be putting all my eggs in one basket however I am a single mum and I can not go too far out of my area so Coventry is perfect for that, I don’t have the required a levels to get into UNiversity of Birmingham but I will work on getting them if this year doesn’t go well and everywhere else is too far, I considered Nottingham however it is GAmSAT and i feel it is just way too overwhelming for me to study for when it is such a closed off secretive exam to study for and you have to know so many subjects quite well. So yeh, Warwick seems to be my only choice and I know that is a massive long shot, is it allowed to just put one choice on your UCAS? Thank you 🙏🏻

If you do an undergraduate degree how many years does it take or will it be until you can apply for medical school
can i apply to undergrad medicine with a foundation year if i study social sciences/humanities at A levels?
I’m a graduate in psychology I’m trying to apply for medicine. Medicinal student who offers his services to help others told me that my choices are limited specially cause I don’t have English and maths gcse B or above and he also said I’m limited because of the fact that it’s psychology and not a lot of uni take that for gem .... so told me to maybe to consider one year college to do access to medicine course .... my gcse were c grades. So I dont know what to do now he said I can still try apply but my options will be limited cause they look at your gcse and few unis consider psycholgy bsc as a science. Please can anyone offer any advice?😭 my other gcse is English IGCSE i do not know if they accept and that's at a grade c, i do not have additional science and only have core science grade c. I've missed college enrolments and don't know what to do
Hi, are there students who start med school at the age of 21? I am from Singapore so I have to do 2 years of military service after high school.
I didn't do amazing on my GCSEs ( A* 7As few Bs ) and only realised part way through AS exams that I wanted to become a doctor, will I still get into medical school?
Definitely enough for a lot of medical schools (e.g. Sheffield, Nottingham ect.). If you really want to do medicine then go for it!!@
@@da14a49 thank you so much!!
does anyone know which medical dental unis dont look at gcses or focus on them that much
Did u get some unis... i want to know the same thingg
There's a lot, go to medic portal they have great advice. Similarly if you go to the UCAT website and go to the Medical Schools and how they use the UCAT page, you can find links to the uni sites which will give you information as to how they use the UCAT
My schol doesnt give offer that many gcses so i ended up leaving with three 9s three 8s one 7 and a 5(in art ). i also got a D in textiles last year. Do you think these grades are good enough to apply because most applicants will have more gcses than me and wouldnt have failed a subject.
Hey! I would definitely check in with the schools you are applying to and ask your university advisers as well! Do thorough research so you know your circumstances well 😊
you're amazing!!! any chance at acing the UCAT in 7 days?
Lol
lol seven hours of constant practice for 6 days should be ok i guess
leave the last day for a rest
Actually i am 17 year old and when i came uk i was 14 i didn't get admission 2 year i am just at hoem last year i call in every school again so they know she is 16 she shuld be in collage so i just take health and social care. Know after one year of social care i am doing work experience volunteering at hospital she tell me that you can do gcse privately. Your video really motivate me to take gcse. Please tell me which gcse subject needed for medical i mean must gcse for medical. If i don't take physics in hcse is it ok
Which part is mentioning iGcses?
Do u have any advice on what work experience I should do??
Hey Amina! Yeah for sure :) At the end of the day, the exact work experience you do isn't the most important. It is what you take away from it. If you can't get an amazing shadow placement following a surgeon or a highly sought after hospital volunteering position, don't worry. Yes it is great to do something like that so you can a) show your dedication to the field but b) realize yourself your motivations for medicine and whether it is for you or not. The important thing is that in whatever work experience you end up doing, you will have experiences and gain skills that are directly translatable to being a doctor or the field of medicine. Don't restrict yourself to a hospital-centric work experience :) If that is what you are looking for because you enjoy it so much, reach out to your GP, your local hospital, and see if they have any volunteering you can do! It's a good place to start
If you are an international student, do you have to take the ukcat?
Were you in STEM High School or boarding or public or private ?
Which UK unis care the least about IGCSE
What not to do? Write at the top of the application that you're in it for the money? That Joseph Mengeler is a source of inspiration to you?
That really you don't care about patients because you just want to be a surgeon?
Hello, im from Poland and i want to study medicine in UK. Right Now im in 2 class high school. I want to write on polish ,,Matura” 3 A levels. Chemistry, Biology and English. And i’v got a question. Im not really good at maths or physics so that’s why I’m choosing English as my third A level. Do I still have a chance to get to any medical school with those 3 A levels?
Aleksander Strzyzewski yes
How if i don't have IGCSE's ?
Okay so I can’t handle pressurised limited timed exams and interviews 😭 but I’m smart
you toke the IGGCSE

Is getting into med schools in Ireland harder than in UK?
I haven't had a look at the admission statistics but I imagine they are both difficult and competitive. 🙂
Well there are a lot more places to apply to in the UK so a lot more choice. We have only 5 medical schools in Ireland and each uni has about 50 places for irish students and the rest is reserved for international students. I also found the UCAT much easier than the HPAT but that’s just me personally, it might not be the same for everyone. We also don’t have personal statements or interviews. Everything is based on your academic performance and the HPAT whereas in the UK your non academics matter a lot more. Hope this helps anyone who wants this information :)

Hey! I haven't heard anything about that university, sorry!

st unicamillus
That doesn't mean it's not good or anything! I just don't know of any universities in Italy :)
What advice do you have about personal statements for medicine?
I've got an entire video on the PS! You can find it here 😊 th-cam.com/video/6aVHN9KAmmg/w-d-xo.html&frags=pl%2Cwn
Please help me 😊
I'm 17 years old and I want to study medicine in the uk after I graduate from high school and I don't know what is the tests that I need to pass.(my native language is Arabic but I speak english very well)
Help me please ☺️
depending on which unis you will apply to you have to sit either the BMAT or UCAT. You can find the information on their websites. Also, if english is your second language you will have to show either "proof" of your english language level with previous certificates or you have to sit an english language exam. Again, more information on their websites.
I used to hesitate and being discouraged about how long and costly it is to be in a medical school, but now I made up my mind that I will pursue it, I'm gonna do my best and study for medical school even if im just a first year college student as of now, I hope Im gonna be motivated all the time.
Hi. my gcses got cancelled and i got predicted instead which were passes. do you think that would ruin my chances to get into medicine even if i get good a levels?
Nope just work hard 😁
Why do you think you got rejected from 3 medical schools without having an interview?
Hi Miranda!
That's a good question and honestly I wish I knew! My best guesses would be my average UKCAT score (probably the biggest factor) followed by my personal statement and international student status. But honestly who knows. It's so competitive and there are so few spots sometimes it doesn't work out!
Thank you for your reply! :)
Miranda Piana of course!
Hi did you sit gamsat?
What was your fifth choice?
Did you get student loan twice ? Please answer
I did not take out a student loan in the UK. I am ineligible as I am an international student.
Are you Dutch?

@@KharmaMedic oh wow💕
can someone tell me what is the IGCSE's?
Hi, I am a Taiwanese student that is trying to apply for U.K med schools this coming October. I'm currently at 40~41/45 in my predicted this year and I really hope I can get into U.K med schools. I'm trying to apply for King's, UCl, Liverpool and Manchester. I just really wanted to ask what are the chances of me getting into these schools, or if I can get accepted to at least one of these schools and get an interview... (I have been shadowing at a hospital for 5 hours a week for the last 1.2 years.)
I can't tell you the chances because I don't know! Check out websites like the student room and the medic portal they should help 🙂
