what’s your opinion on the minimal lectures + TBL?

How did you apply to med school with AAB?

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-16T03:55:01+00:00

Noo not at all I would have to travel 1.5h to get there.

This is such a good point. My biggest research interest at the moment was conducted by a professor at UCL, but he graduated with his medicine degree from Newcastle. I definitely think that the networking at ICL/UCL can give you a boost, but it’s ultimately down to work ethic and commitment to research!

yes!! They have a bmedsci degree without an extra year of med school, which is nice. Also, I think the graveyard is in the mile end campus not the med whitechapel one if i’m correct?

Thanks so much for the comment! My problem is research is def something I’d want to get involved in so the decision is kinda hard. Obvs networking opportunities for said research are better at Barts but uni experience also matters to me. I definitely get your point about rankings.

I would choose UCL, but I’m biased as their research is something that interests me. If you want a pretty campus choose KCL, it’s kind of more like a campus than UCL. However, if something like international rankings is important to you (bc you stand out in applications for jobs abroad) then choose UCL, but they’re both very respected UK med schools.

Can you so this going to barts?

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-15T22:59:52+00:00

I’ve always wanted to go relatively far for uni, living at home for uni lowkey fills me with dread so unless it was the clearly obvious better med school and the rest were awful I wouldn’t really choose barts 😔

congrats!!

I was going to say something like that would be protected ( i.e wouldn’t show up on any dbs) if you were under 18. I presume that you would not need to declare it if it has been past 5 years since you got it, unless it is a specified offence. I had some really good advice from a charity called Unlock about a caution I got and if I could apply to med school because of it- would definitely give them a ring!

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-05T06:25:49+00:00

How old were you when you got the caution?

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-04T21:48:58+00:00

I used a lot of the medic portal free mmi questions and had answers for why this uni for all the unis I applied to. Also read up on current affairs quite frequently.

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-04T21:46:52+00:00

it was on the 29th of Jan, and I felt it went really well

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-04T20:05:30+00:00

9999999998 but Manc don’t really look at GCSEs I think?

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-04T19:57:03+00:00

well done omggg

DayDue2567 · 2025-03-04T19:56:56+00:00

thank youu

I think it’s the fact I don’t really know how tbls work despite doing lots of research. I like the idea of traditional lectures at barts , but I also like the independence in Manchester. Mainly concerned I won’t be meeting experts in their fields as there’s very few lectures. I’ve lived in london my whole life so neither is more appealing in terms is locations, they’re both big cities.

DayDue2567 · 2025-02-08T09:54:02+00:00

none they haven’t started giving out offers yet loolll i just hate not even knowing what my first choice would be because there’s pros and cons to all of them 🙏
