When applying to any medical school it is best for the applicant to do some research and go to the medical schools website, or even contact them

Hi,
Medicine students can apply from anywhere, not just in the north west.

Hi
Thanks a where did you get this information from? On their website it says for MBBS Medicine they accept international students and only a few from the UK who live in the North West of England?

Hey @Shslini,

I believe you are looking at UCLAN University (based in Preston) - they welcome mostly international students and limited home students. Lancaster University (based in Lancaster) also does medicine and accepts any applicant based on BMAT. Both are based in Lancashire.

Here you can find the link to each MBBS course, respectively:
https://www.uclan.ac.uk/undergraduate/courses/medicine-mbbs
https://www.lancaster.ac.uk/lms/medicine/

I am a medical student at Lancaster University, feel free to ask me any more questions 😊. I hope this helped.

Thank you
You are right- I was looking at uclan as I dis not realise there were 2 universities with similar names in that area.
Please can you advise what are the best resources for revision for Bmat?
Thanks

Hi there @Shslini, :smile:

For our MBBS Medicine & Surgery course, UK applicants must live in the North West of England. You can learn more about the course and it's full entry requirements here.

If you have any questions please do let me know.
All the best,
Sarah

@Lancaster Student Ambassador, I Applied to Lancaster for A100. But I didn't receive any confirmation from the university whether they received my application or not? Are they usually send any email when they receive an application for A100? Please let me know.

Hi we did receive an email to complete a short survey on English Qualifications. But no request to set up a portal page thought. I guess just wait till after 24th November when BMAT results released. Long time....

6 - English Language
C - Additional Maths FSMQ

Predicted A level grades:
Chemistry - A

Maths-A
I am also doing an EPQ too now, also AS Computing .

Work experience/Volunteering:
· 1 week at a Dentist + 1 week at Coventry Hospital shadowing a Neurology specialist
· Volunteered at a kumon tuition centre volunteer for around 60 hours in a span of about 6 months (Sept 2023 - March 2024)
· Volunteering at an old age care home for 20 plus hours, this is being continued on Saturdays.
· Volunteered at seasonal cafe which gives donations to charities for seasonal celebrations

Many thanks
