Applying for medicine.

Hey TSR, not too sure as to whether I am on the right part of the forum for this query but I shall post it never the less.
I am currently in the first year of a BSc Biomedical Science degree, achieving around a first at this point in the term, and I have decided that I really want through the graduate-entry medicine route. Now I know this route is VERY competitive, more so then the undergraduate medicine route is, however I have always had a major love for medicine, I just didn't get the grades and I wasn't mature enough to take the course.
Now I would like to ask you, how do I give myself the highest possible chance of getting in?
I have already applied to volunteer at the British Red Cross, and I am soon going to contact my GP and arrange 1 weeks worth of work shadowing, I know that attaining a first throughout my degree will also be very helpful. Anything thing else anyone can think of? Any help is very much appreciated.

You'll find this very helpful, and it'll answer most questions you can have about getting into a GEM course!

Otherwise, it's really just the same as what undergrads are expected to do, but at a higher level. More experience in a healthcare setting is expected, for example. Keep in mind you can still apply for A100 at universities that don't offer A101. :smile:
