    Indeed it’s inspiring 🙌🏽. You know I used to think you doing medicine at SMU, remember this biology video of you that trended 😅. You worked hard to be where you’re young man. Continuing fighting hard, many are inspired and still going to be by your journey👏🏿. I’m one of the person who’s inspired. Getting to medicine ain’t Easy. Thank you brother🙏🏽

      @@PrescillaKgade BSportSci is a Bsc degree, but as far as I know you can transfer to medicine from any degree as long as your marks are good enough🙌🙌,but there are certain Bsc degrees where you can transfer into medicine in the second semester of your first year. With other degrees you don't have this luxury and can only transfer at the end of the year. Hope this helped and good luck with your future studies and I hope you get into Medicine 😃

Your NBT Marks contribute when selections are done , so you need to do well in it as well.

    • @sihlemedic

      Hey ! Thanks for watching.
      Yes, they would consider your application but you will have to get A's in almost all your subjects to get accepted. ( I don't encourage the upgrading route though, most people I know who have upgraded and got As were still not accepted and had to do a Bsc or any other undergrad program)
      I would advise you to enrol for any undergraduate degree (of your choice) , get an average above 75% and then apply using those results to get into med the following year.

      Its not difficult, there are people who managed to do well in first year and were able to get into medicine with those marks.
      I found first year a bit challenging because I was still getting used to varsity , some study methods that worked for me in high school were not working anymore and I had to change them , so when I was in 2nd year I had well adapted and I started doing very well.
      I think it's just personal preferences that determine where people end up studying, some go to UP, SMU, UFS etc. Just that its likely that when you've done one degree in one institution you'll most probably want a change of scenery and end up going to a different institution when doing another degree.

    Hello sihle. Now tell me when you applied at Medical school did they consider your final matrix marks? Do you have to initially qualify with your grade 12 marks? Or they just consider your latest academic record like wena since you got an average of 77% in bsc? I've got level 4s in maths And physics,I wanna choose the bsc route too but I'm worried since I don't meet the min req for mbchb vele

      Hi . If you don't meet the the physicics and math requirements with your matric results , then you have to do a math and physics module in your first year of study at University and make sure you do well there .

    I am doing law but medicine has always been my dream and passion,i have already applied at UP but I am very skeptical whether the transfer from law to medicine is possible? I always hear people including yourself saying they transferred from a BSC degree. So I wanted to know as a law student do I stand a chance to be accepted into medicine given that I meet the requirements(average) of course or its only possible if you coming from a BSc degree?

      Hi Thabang , are you currently doing postgrad?
      My advice is apply to every medical school to maximize your chances of getting admitted.
      Since you're a graduate, I also recommend the GEMP program offered by Wits university, they take quite a number of graduates into their program .

      Hey there Johnson weary ...Not in your first year, if you're doing an extended programme you have to complete the year then you can switch to Medicine at the beginning of the following year.
      I know someone who did mid year transfer in second year of their extended program, so I think it's only allowed then for the extended program students.

      This course has been the most challenging thing I’ve had to survive mainly because of the level of difficulty and the fact that it wasn’t what I wanted to study in the first place. You not having any background in accounting won’t make the journey any easier for you but it is doable and you can excel if you put a lot of dedication into it. Go into the course with a mindset that it won’t be easy and make sure you put in the time and effort so that you can actually change to medicine.
      All the best!🤗
