Graduate Entry Medicine: 2016 Entry

Hi all,

With a UKCAT of score of 700 i think the only GEM course I'll have a chance of making it to interview at is Warwick... so I've been looking to shore up my application with some 5 year places.

I've found it difficult to track down details on graduate entry requirements for 5 year courses. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of requirements for grads knocking about? or perhaps could suggest where I might be eligible with the UKCAT score mentioned above:

2.1 in Natural Sciences (Molecular Bio and a few psych modules);
AAB (bio, history, chem - annoyingly the chem is the B!!)
Worked the NHS for the past year on the gradate management scheme, also done voluntary work in a care home, voluntary work in India shadowing doctors + doing v basic procedures

I did gamsat in March so Liverpool 4 year, Mancheyer 5 year, and in still debating between two!

I wanted to go for Warwick too but I feel mine is too low despite what others have said. 682 is worth a shot though!

With that I would take a stab at Warwick. It's a little low but it does seem people are scoring a little lower this year (based on subjective analysis of TSR posts, who tend to overachieve!)

What was your VR?

I only know about the ones which are for people without any chem/bio post GCSE. They're;

Leicester - UKCAT - scoring system which includes previous grades and degree classification
Newcastle/Durham - UKCAT is sole selector for interview, 700 has been good enough for interview in recent years (except 2014 for obvious reasons).
Exeter/Plymouth - GAMSAT

Generally, universities have a section for graduates applying to a100 on their entry requirements page. You will have more options open to you due to your A-Level subjects and degree.

Hello people,

So it all went wrong today and I only scored an average of 630 with a band 1.

Worth applying?

Thanks.

Guys with a UKCAT score of 695 is there any particular Unis that I can apply to? My A levels are only ABB in Maths, Chemistry and Biology

This is the Graduate entry thread, I'm assuming your not a graduate ?

No I am a graduate studying Medical Engineering at QMUL with a first predicted grade

Ah sorry! Will you be applying for all GEM ? Or 5 year courses as well?

If your VR score is good, you have a shot at Warwick. (I believe there were a few interviewees for this year's entry with slightly bleow 700 last year, but they did well in the VR section. It was during the admission process that Warwick decided to focus on the VR part!).

Looooool well actually VR was my worst score by far I got 590, my others were 770 (QR), 730 (AR) and 690 (DA) with Band 1 in SJ...these scores surely are too low for any of the graduate entry programmes right?

Something else tho is that I actually booked the GAMSAT and have it scheduled for September 9th but I haven't got a clue about it do you think 2 weeks is enough time to revise for it? There's only3 GEP programmes that use it right?

Thanks for your advise!

Just seen the GAMSAT admission ticket, guess I'll be seeing some of you at Olympia Central.
