Med school gap year

If you get accepted into med school do you have to go straight away or are you allowed to tell them that you want a gap year?
You can ask them (assume you have already applied otherwise you just request deferred entry on the application) - they don’t have to accept your request as it would depend on number of others who also want to defer. Some unis maybe more flexible and certainly they usually have a cut off date for applying

When you apply for medicine, do you get accepted first and then ask for gap year or do you say you want a gap year BEFORE you apply ( etc in the interview or application)
