Hello @33fishy

Great to hear that you are interested in studying medicine at UEA.

I have been studying at UEA for the last five years (MSc Banking and Finance, BSc Economics with a Year Abroad).

If you would like further information on the medicine course that you are looking at you can click here: https://www.uea.ac.uk/course/undergraduate/mbbs-medicine
This will provide information on the course and modules, which may help you in making your decision.

Factors that I would recommend looking out for when choosing where to study:

The modules (if you are more interested in the modules at one university than another and align with what you want to learn and your professional career)

You could look at the careers that people who studied the course went on to do

The reputation and rankings in the UK- UEA Medicine School is in the top 25 in the UK

Entry Requirements


If you have any further questions please let me know
