Getting into medicine is by no means easy, and application season can be a messy, confusing, stressful time. As an international student, there are so many questions that none of the countless resources address. IntelMedics, created by internationals for internationals, aims to create a one-stop-shop for everything you need to know about how to apply to the UK for medicine. We've spent countless hours compiling all the relevant resources you need to make a kick-ass application, so you don't have to!
It's not all work too! We also spill the tea on how to adjust to the culture shock, what it's like to cook for the first time and more!
Although the course structure varies between universities(in terms of the level of "integration"), there is still a clear demarcation between pre-clinical and clinical years.
what is medical school in the UK like?
During the first 2-3 years of study, you will be exposed to the basic scientific principles that underpin medicine. This content may be delivered in a variety of ways-lectures, seminars, group work, tutorials and they may be supplemented by practicing very basic clinical skills early clinical exposure(although to a lesser extent).
pre-clinical years
The last 3 years of medical school are aimed at practical implementation of the knowledge you have learnt, in wards or at GPs. It would resemble a job more than the life of a typical university student. You'll likely be at hospital from 9-5 with teaching by the staff there and some lectures back at your university. It is a fiercely independent time-you're meant to make the most of your time on the job-engaging with patients, interacting with the staff, making your own differentials etc.
clinical years
