  • Hi lovelies 👋 Welcome back to another video. Today I talk you through my journey into medicine and becoming a medical student at medical school.
    I just want to say that I had a relatively straightforward journey into med school and I had a lot of privileges (alongside working hard) which meant this happened. BUT everyone's journey is unique, there's not one right path and HONESTLY I mean this, my friends who didn't get into medicine the first time around are going to make better doctors for it. They are amazing!
    I hope this may inspire somebody or help you to understand the time frames and process of applying to medical school alongside doing your Alevels!
    Let me know if you have any questions in the comments as always guys :)

    If you have the choice at GCSE between doing triple science and combined science, does it make a lot of difference which one you choose for getting into Medicine?

      @@yaraeluneis948 I didn't no, but honestly from my experience there's literally no point applying to kings if you don't have at least 2800 in your ucat, they look at ucat the most it basically overrules everything I think

    what does gp mean?

    • @henrybagnall9510
      @henrybagnall9510 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      GP means general practise. It’s a part of the primary care scheme and is usually your first place to contact with an issue

    • @neptune2266
      @neptune2266 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      it can also stand for “general practitioner” which is just the doctor who provides the primary care.
