Ideal Plan?

Please tell me about my plan, it can work or not:
I m polish. I finished veterinary technical college in Poland, I am stduing now medicine on Ukraine, but to stay here it is impossible for me.
My PLAN:
1.Transfer to Biomedical Sc or Microbiology for 2009 ( some uni agreed: for ex. Aberdeen, Plymouth, Surrey, Kingston)
2.GRADuATE on 2.1
3.Taking one year breake to make status of migrant worker, get some work experience and pass GAMSAT or UKCAT or BMAT, and prepare for it
4Apply to medicine
What you think about my plan? Here on ukraine i done already a year of practice in hospital :woo:

why do you need migrant worker status?

its as good a plan as any other, but you will need to speak to student finance direct to get them to clarify your entitlements to funding, because you might not be entitled to tuition fee loans (because you will be a graduate) and you might not be allowed maintenance loans (because you are not from the uk).

next question for you" you think wich course in this case will be the best:
biomed sc (with anatomy) (aberdeen)
microbiology(medical), or genetics microbiology or standard (surrey)
biomed sc (kingston, plymouth, bradford, wolverhampton)

Aberdeen personally.

Id say go for aberdeen try to avoid kingston plymouth etc as they are ex polys and genereally not held in as high regard as traditional unis which could be determental when you apply to medicine. This is coming from someone at an expoly

Why not finish medicine where you are now (how many years have you got left?) and than get a job in the UK?

Definately by far the best plan. Let's face it, even if you do manage to get funding, its still extremely competitive to get into graduate medicine, and the fact you have left a medical degree already might not sound too good to admissions.

Why is it so impossible to stay, at least to finish your studies?

BUT!! how are you going to fund the microbiology or Biomed degree? You will not yet be a migrant worker, therefore you will not be entitled to funding.

UK is not exactly cheap either. You can get a loan for your tutition fees but you will have to fork out money for your accomdation and other expences. I have been supporting myself from a part time job through medical degree and it is doable but not that easy. I guess it depends how much they charge you at the moment.

As a EU student I am eligible for tution fee loan. For living- working....
