Help please! UK student wanting to study in France

I have a European one
Do you know much about the DAP form?

Yeah a european passport is still complicated though... You can't use the traditional french version of UCAS, you have to contact the universities individually if i remember well.
I've never heard of that form, I have a French passport so it probably doesn't apply to me :/

Which universities were you thinking of? and what's your french level like btw?

Hey, have any of you guys applied for medicine in France ?

Which University did you pick?

That’s great I received an offer from Rouen, Reims, Caen , Lille, Amiens. Do you live in France ? X

I picked Reims , as I wanted to be close to Paris. Nice is beautiful though!!

Yes same it’s my second back up plan too. First year is tragic 🔫

Nah i live in the UK but I'm french
Still not sure whether I'm going to go to France or not. It's my second back up plan.

Which one of these did you pick in the end? I also got an offer from Caen but rejected it... It is a nice city though (Better than Amiens or Reims )

Hey I'm french too how did you apply to the unis? im applying this year but have no idea where to start

French unis or UK ones?
Cause for this september entry it’s too late i’m afraid

To apply to french unis and yes I know it's too late but I'm taking a gap year to travel

It's a good idea to apply to UCAS in the UK, it's better to choose between many offers rather than not having any.
In France, courses start at the end of September, but you normally have offers from February to June if you apply as a foreign student through Campus France. There is a Campus France office in London if you want to have more information:

There are several summer schools if you are interested. But honestly, it's a good idea to spend a year studying French while preparing for the PACES exam. Don't worry about being older than your classmates, many of them are actually repeating the PACES year because they've failed the exams once or twice, some of them also take gap years to work or travel around the world.

And for your final question: no, I don't study medicine, but I'm a foreign student at a Grande école and I have study at a university as well (Sorbonne), so I know the system pretty well.

But you should be aware that even tho there’s no selection at first, PACES is really really hard and only 13 to 30% of the students (depending ok the universities) succeed and go on the second year. It’s even more competitive in Paris because there are too many students and not everyone gets a place. Besides there are quotas for non-French students. You should be really motivated and determined if you want to study medicine in Paris because it’s hard, some people retake the PACES 3 times (so three whole years) before getting it, or not. Students who go study medicine in France from my countries usually go to smaller cities like Lyon, Lille, Saint-Etienne, Amiens or Besançon to increase their chances. So think about it! Bonne chance ☺️

IS It possible to take paces more than twice as u mentioned?
