Is Future Doc worth it?
Hi everyone, I’m an international GEM applicant (but I’ve done my BSc and my MSc in the UK + I have worked/am working in the NHS so I’m not too foreign to the UK education system or healthcare system).
I had an interview with Future Doc today, they offer 2 programmes (fundamentals or gold) and they basically coach you through the whole application process up until your offers.
Given I am at a double disadvantage (international + GEM), I was wondering is it worth it to pay for the coaching services?
I’ve already paid for Medify for 12 months, I’m self studying for the UCAT and I feel I have a good understanding of the NHS values + medical ethics (just from working in the NHS and having been on a healthcare course) to study for the interviews when and if I am offered any.
At the same time, I really do want to give myself the best chances at getting accepted because I am already 25 and will be 26-27 by the time I get to start a GEM course and I don’t want to lose 1 more year.
Has anyone worked with them, what are your thoughts?

Hey - I posted this in a different thread as well but I think it is worth posting here too!
So I actually joined the programme, and honestly, it was totally worth it! I get that it can seem expensive, but for me, it was a solid investment. I was paired with a medical student who helped me prep for the UCAT, and having that support really kept me on track. They ran loads of sessions that broke down each section in detail, which was super helpful.What made the biggest difference for me was the interview prep. When I got my interviews, I was able to have sessions with medical students from those specific universities, so the advice was really tailored to the style of each place.If cost is a worry, they do offer different ways to pay, and they’ve got subsidies for students from low-income backgrounds, which is great. Honestly, the programme played a big role in helping me get into medical school—especially after a few previous attempts. It also helped that my tutor connected me with other students applying to the same unis, so we could practise interview questions together and keep each other updated on offers and things like that. I'd definitely recommend dropping them an email and asking about it. It might not be for everyone, but for me, it made a massive difference. I think it is really easy to look at these programmes and think SCAM but honestly I think if you look at the reviews from students including myself it defiantly is not!
So please please don't read the negative reviews about the company as I think everyone has a different experience but a majority is overwhelmingly positive!
