where's the UCT info?
UCT offers a BSc in Human Anatomy and Physiology. This degree focuses from a cellular level to a macro level.
At wits BHSc Biomedical sciences is more advantageous to get into GEMP because first and second year of medicine and Biomed are the same. Literally the same. And if u are doing BHSc Biomed and get an average of 60% in second year you will exempt from writing the selection test for GEMP 🙃
Thank you for letting me know 😊
if you get an average of 60 will you go straight to med
Really?
@@ntandomatshoba4482 no, you will only be able not to write the test
What about Biomedical engineering?
Yes I am doing BSc Genetics and Physiology @UFS it's definitely doable, I know alot of people who went to medicine through it.
I applied for BSc Biochemistry and Physiology. Can I transfer to Medicine?
Thank you sm for this video! Im considering going to Stellenbosh. My friend told me that at Tuks they took 45 people for the mid year transfer out of 500 people.Plus the amount of modules they do in 1st semester is like 8\9. I checked stellies and with BSc human life science i saw that we do 5 modules and the maths(bio) is only in 1st semester and that the physics(bio) is" less difficult" than normal physics.
Babe can I get feedback..how’s your plan going?
I made a stupid mistake and chose to apply for a Bsc specialising in chemistry and not biochemistry by the way at University of Pretoria. Please let me know if its possible to get into medcine.
If I study BSc biological sciences in UKZN do you think that I will have a chance to get in after my last year of studying for this degree? Because I didn’t get in after 1st year even though I did get over 80% last year for all my modules and I got Deans Commendations for both semesters. I was told that first years are only considered if 2nd and 3rd years are not enough to fill the spaces
Firstly congratulations on getting such amazing marks. You should so proud of yourself 💕💕
Honestly University have they own merit system that they do. What I would suggest is to apply to all medical school and also speak to the admin office of the medical facility at your school and ask what actually they want.
If your Grade12 maths and physics marks are less than 60% you won't be considered
2yrs later. Hope you got in 💕
Thank you so much for all this info❤❤
I'm a first year student at NMU, I'm doing BSc in Dietetics and I want to transfer to medicine next year..my question is possible to transfer?
Hi
I'm not sure how NMU transfer policy works since it's a fairly new. But I would suggest email the medical school administrator
I wanted to ask. 1.What average in 1st year should we aim for in order to transfer to medicine in stellies. And secondly could you do a video on 1st year BSc human life science on how to work effectively in each module.eg Bio, maths(bio) ect...
Will definitely do ❤
Hiiii .
Your video is soo informative.
If I may can i transfer from BHSci in biochemistry and physiology at NWU to medicine?
Looking at the modules for it, it looks like a really good degree if you want to switch to medicine😊
There's no such thing as "too ambitious"!!!
Hey I don't know whether it's too late for me to ask but is it possible to get into medicine while you doing BSC extended programme in physics at Tuks
I'm honestly I'm not sure how it works for the extended programme. I'm sorry. I would suggest taking to the admin of the medical school to see their progress when it comes to the extended program
Hi...would you say transferring to medicine(anywhere) while doing pharmacy at UL a good option?
Looking at their course modules is seems well rounded in biomedical topic. If you are in your first year I would suggest emailing the universities that you are interested in and see how the feel about external transfers. From my understanding most universities either want someone who just matriculated or they want someone how has a completed degree. It's easier to switch degree internally but there's nothing wrong with asking.
Let’s say you applied for a BSc degree with your grade 11 marks in order to get provisional acceptance. Can you then apply for medicine with your grade 12 results because they are better or??
Hey Keabetswe
I would suggest that you talk to the administrator of the medical faculty of the university you applied to during orientation/registration and as if you can transfer. I think they will either A) put you on a waiting list (such honestly I doubt because they would already have people on their waiting list who applied doing their matric year) or B) tell you to apply for medicine for the next year (2023).
I hope you enjoy your BSc tho. The Sciences are amazing 💕
I currently finished my grade 11 year and my marks are not fantastic so I was asking if I could apply for a BSc and receive provisional acceptance and then after I finish my matric year (with better marks) apply for medicine, is that possible?
@@keyaTleane Unfortunately it's not possible because Medicine is a highly competitive field so you have to apply from the get go. You can't ask to transfer to medicine or anything in the health sciences faculty. They make exceptions for other faculties but not the health sciences one. However, you can do BSc for one year and then transfer to medicine the next year after that. That's possible
Hey thank you for the amazing video . Please try and find out about bsc in walter sisulu university and which one is best to get into medicine
Okay noted ❤❤
I'm actually a Bsc Student from wsu moving to med
@@sunflowerchild01 can I ask some questions
@@sunflowerchild01 Can I ask some questions ?
@@abulelelahliwe9434 yes you may
Hi can I transfer to medicine if I'm doing BSc Biodiversity & Conservation Biology from UWC to UCT
It depends. They may look at you Grade 12 marks in addition to your degree. But if you took course that had a biochemistry element that may help
Hi is the biochemistry and physiology a good bsc that will lead me to dentistry
Lets say, you did physics and chemistry as an elective, could you still get in aswell?
Physics and chemistry overall with medicine, so that is a big positive for you. You may have to do an additional first year course in physiology and anatomy if you are accepted that depends on the university you want to study at.
So does uct allow me to study bsc human life science and transfer to medicine
Most universities allow you to transfer. Just keep to your medical school administrator
@@thatsciencechick okay thanks
Hi does the GEMP only apply to people who want to do medicine or does it also apply to other courses like Dentistry or Veterinary Sciences?
Hey Reabetswe
The GEMP is only for Medical School
Hello ,can you hey in to uct while doing a bsc at uj and if so which bsc us advisable
Hi Miguel
If you want to transfer university the main thing is that your marks are within a good average (aim for above 70%).
With that being said, if you want to got to uct and do a degree that has physiology and biochem a BSc in Life and Environmental Sciences and picking the Physiology and biochem stream can be an option
I got accepted for a BSc in Life&Environ Sc in Biochem&Botany ... will this do
BSc Biochemistry and Physiology to Medicine in UFS?
Hi! I wanted to ask if you could recommend Bsc degrees to take if you are applying to UCT, I don’t see your explanation in the comments
Hey there so sorry I didn't add it in.
In UCT it seems that you apply for a BSc and choose a major.
I would look at Human Anatomy and Physiology, Biochemistry and Genetics. They offer cell biology and first year chemistry which are great for possible transfer to medicine
Does taking physiotherapy work if you want to transfer into med at uct?
Hi , I'm doing Bsc in environmental health..is there a chance I would be ever get into medicine
Hi I wanted to ask if you can do a BSC life science to bridge to medicine
You can do any first year human biology course (biochemistry, Genetics, human life Sciences) if you are thinking of transferring after first year but if you thinking long term human life would be the best. However it's highly competitive.
can you reapply to medicine after obtaining a Bsc in molecular biology and biotechnology?
Hi Jenna. In stellies, yes, you can reapply for medicine.
Can I transfer from bsc physical science:Majoring in Geography to Medicine 😢
It depends on your university and how the give credit
If Im doing BCS at another university and I want to do medicine at stellies will they accept me
Yes stellenbosch can still accept you but I think you do a interview as part of your application
@@thatsciencechick it's being said that stellies won't accept you if you're from another varsity (I stand to be correct)
@@palesamphahlele yes I think so. I think they will advise you to finish your degree before you can apply. I also stand to be corrected but that's what I remember
@@palesamphahlele I would suggest watching themedguy video on the gemp. On it he takes about the process he did to get to medicine at stellies. I think he was at Tuks or Wits before but I'm not sure, but I think he'll be beneficial
I did Bsc in Physics. Please can I apply for medicine
I chose Bsc in chemistry and physiology at NWU ,can I also transfer from it to medicine ?
Those are really good subjects for medicine😊. Most universities will look that as a benefits
Hii
Do you think doing bsc in biochemistry and genetics is wise in ufs in order to transfer into medicine
Biochemistry is great since it's can translate to medicine.🌸
Can I use BSc in Medical bioscience and apply for medicine at UCT or Stellenbosch.
You can apply with a medical bioscience degree
Hey babes so if u wanna transfer to medicine is it a must to be in something in the same lines of medicine or u can transfer from any course as long as you doing well
Hey. I think it's university based. In some universities think had good matric marks for the required marks for medicine (i.e. maths, physical sciences and/or life sciences) they may be more lenient. But if your matric marks are not that great maybe looking at Science based courses will be better
@@thatsciencechick thank u so much for the info
Can you transfer from nursing to medicine??
Yes
Yes you can
Hey i just wanted to ask what is the best bsc that will lead me to dentistry
Dentistry and medicine are very similar, so degrees that have chemistry, biology, and physics are key🌸
Can i apply as a student from cmr am doing a bsc in biomedical science right now
I'm not sure how university feel about international transfers but if you are thinking of applying after your first degree than I think that's doable
So is it possible to transfer to medicine if you're doing an extended course
It depends on your university. The best thing to do is to talk to the medical school administration to see how they handle transfer students
Hey i wanted ask can you switch from Bsc to a Beng in TUKS
Most universities are flexible in switching courses as long as you can meet requirements
How to get Stellenbosch university prospective 2023
Hey Ayanda
I'll make a Google drive with all the prospectus and put it in the description
Hii...does Bsc(chemistry)....allows u to transfer to medicine
What university?
Stellenbosch
New subbie 🙏👌❤
Thank you❤️
Hi !..I wanted to ask how many points are needed to study Bsc?.
Can you be specific. Do you mean marks or NBT?
The Marks!.
What about doing a Bsc at UNISA is it a bad Idea ?
Honestly I'm not sure. In the end of the day a BSc is a Bsc
Thanks
Hey does this apply to international students as well?
Hey can you be more specific 💕
Does UCT open late application for biomedical science.?
Most universities are very strict with there closing dates unfortunately. Have you applied for something else at UCT or you haven't applied at all?
I did applied for applied mathematics because i didn't had a choice as the health science course were closed , I don't know whether you can change from applied mathematics to medicine or what.!
I would suggest to connect the administrator of the medical facility, either through email or doing orientation. They would point you to what you need to do.
Can you do medicine if you only have maths n physics n no life sciences
It depends on the university. Most universities want you to have life sciences
Is possible to get to gemp if I have bsc applied mathematics degree
Any degree can take the gemp.
@@thatsciencechick how cause I don't have physics, chemistry and biology?
hi how many years does it take for switching from bsc to medicine(how many years of bsc)
It depends on the university. Some university like stellenbosch and tuks allow you to transfer in your first year. Some only after your third year but all of this is based on your marks
Hi there. Do you know if I can study a bachelors in emergency care and then apply to the GEMP?
Hi Vincent
If your course has 1st year biology, chemistry and physics that would be preferable but you can still do your course but do those 1st year module's through UNISA. The GEMP doesn't really have a specfic degree requirement it just needs those course. Look at the pinned comment for more information.
Let me know if I can help further🌸🌸
Can i get into medicine through Bsc in human genetics?
Most degrees that involve human Sciences like Genetics can increase your chances in medicine. I would suggest looking at the requirements that universities you are considering and see what they want.
Can someone with level 4 in maths and physics metric one day get to medicine jst asking for a friend🙂
I believe anything is possible💕💕💕💕. It may not be in matric level but varsity has an amazing effect in inspiring people. If you need help in maths or physic there are many sources you can use to boost your marks
@@thatsciencechick so what course can he apply for that may lead him to his dream of getting to medicine with his average matric results☺🤗
can UP still take you if you transfer after your 2nd year,
I think they only look at first year and final year. I would just asking the medical school admin for clarification
How about evironnmental biology
Honestly, it depends on the university. Some want people who already have a background in human biology, and they are some programs like the GEMP that are more flexible with ones degree
Hi may i please ask, can you change from mech engineering to medicine during first year?
I would ask medical school administrator and ask if you have significant academic merit
Somebody commented that they got into UCT med after doing UCT mech ENG.
@@enkosintame5696 i am at Wits doing Mech Engineering. Do i stand chances of being accepted next year?
What about complementary medicine?Is it a right Bsc degree to transfer it?
Complementary medicine is alternative medicine. Meaning it focuses on medical treatments outside traditional (western) medicine. Think this like acupuncture, herbal treatments those things.
So if you are a holistic person who doesn't really believe in traditional medicine then it's a cool course. But it don't think it will be beneficial if you are interested I traditional medicine
@@thatsciencechick But can i change it to MBBCh?
@@Mopheme06 I honestly don't think so. It's does seen that they align in terms of course work
Hi there I wanted to ask if doing biomedical engineering is advantageous when applying into GEMP
If Biomedical engineering offers chemistry and physics then Yes
So everyone now wants to become a Doctor??
Lol not everyone😉
How does that concern you?😢
Hii ... what about unisa
UNISA offers a bachelor of life Sciences biomedical science which can be helpful
😊😂 it's cute that you like to laugh
Can I transfer from nursing to medicine?
Yes you can
What about Bsc Mathematics?does it help?
I'm not sure. If it's has chemistry and physics component in it then it's can help.
I am also doing that. From what I know is that we must at least meet the matric requirements in physics or biology. Then we can apply with our degree to the other universities. Not Wits though.
For Wits we have to get a year of biology, Chem, physics (university modules) then apply for the gemp and write etc..
If doing BMEDSCIENCE in Anatomy is it possible to transfer to medicine
What uni do you want to transfer to?
@@thatsciencechick UP or UKZN ...will my matric results be taken into consideration
if i take Forensic Science or BSc in Plant pathology can i still transfer to Medicine?
Honestly it's university depended. My advise would be to take to the medical school admin and ask them what they look for in transfer students
