    So, if you take foundation year does that put you at a disadvantage? I'm really confused. So if I don't get amazing grades at a level, I can still become a Doctor? Will you leave with the same qualification as someone with standard entry?

    • @rachaelo5410
      @rachaelo5410 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ross Geller it doesn't put u at a disadvantage. It's just an extra year to brush up on important details before actually doing ur med degree so u do finish with the same qualification as when u go into direct entry. (So yh u don't need amazing grades at a level).
      It's mainly for ppl who come from disadvantaged backgrounds ie. low family income/ underachieving skl/ u live in a poor place. Or if u took the wrong a levels.
      Different uni's have different requirements so you have to research each one that offers foundation med

    I came from Pakistan and here I'm doing BTEC level 2 with English and Maths GCSE. Shall I progress onto A-levels or BTEC level 3. My college can offer me A-levels. I think A-levels are best because I want to get into medicine and good unis don't accept btec level 3 science.
    The other thing is that I don't have any GCSEs except my maths and English.... will this effect my uni admission?

    I got AAAB at AS and applied for 1 foundation at King's and 3 other 5 year courses...
    I mainly applied for the foundation course because we were told that it would be good in helping prepare you for medicine- particularly with essay writing. The essay writing practise, for the most part, was the reason I applied and now I wish I would have applied for the 5 year course...
    Oh well...

      @Anarchhh99 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** As long as you went to a non-selective state school from year 7, or meet a different criteria for eligibility, you should be fine. Congratulations on your results also :) .
      For the A100 course at least, I think you need 3 A-Levels and an AS at grade B. I have some friends who didn't achieve that, but are still applying as they're doing an EPQ to act as a substitute for the AS. In short, I think you may need to do something else to compensate for having 3 rather than 4, but it'd be better to contact the university as I may be incorrect.

      Not really because he got in with lower predicted grades otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get into the 5 year course immediately with his predicted grades; in the UK at least. So foundation year allows u to get in with grades lower than the minimum requirement in a 5 year medicine course. Worth the £9000.
