Hello! @Minimatteo 🙂
Have you considered UEA?
UEA's medicine degree is different from others as it allows you get hands on hospital experience from first year. This is because UEA works very closely with the N&N Hospital (a teaching hospital for Norwich and Norfolk)
You do meet the entry requirements for UEA's MBBS course, and UEA has no cut off point for the UCAT.
Is there anything in particular you are looking for in a university?
UEA has UniBuddy where you can talk to current students (including medicine) so you can get a better feel for the university!
Hope this helps! 🙂 Let me know if you have any questions!
Fatma.
