Studying medicine is a challenging and rewarding subject that leads to a very worthwhile career. If you are thinking about studying medicine then you have made an excellent choice and hopefully these pages will help clear up any questions you have and help with the application and interview process.

There are 32 UK medical schools and all have individual admissions processes. All of them are looking for bright, enthusiastic and motivated students who will take studying medicine seriously.

It usually takes 5 or 6 years to train to become a doctor, which may seem like a long time, but the effort will be worth it and during the latter years of training, the studying and learning is almost completely hospital-based and more work-related and interesting.

You can find out more about the application procedures, interviews, UKCAT, and Pre-Med courses as well as links to other organisations that can help you with your plight to becoming a doctor in the UK!
