Thank you so much Melvin!
Thank you Rohan! This was sooo helpful 😃
Glad it was helpful Darshan!
Awesome, my friend! 😌💭
Thank you :)
Thank you very much Rohan, this video has been incredibly useful and will be returning to it often as well as your channel. Wish you best of luck with all your studies!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Also for medical school it’s almost essential to have been to Grammar School, so really the journey to medicine begins in Primary school with passing the 11 plus and getting a place in grammar school. Most medical schools won’t consider your ucas application if you have not been to a grammar school. The only option is to apply to an overseas medical school.
I worked really hard for GCSEs and got one A* and B and Cs, I was quite disappointed but now life have changed and im doing my first AS exam in few weeks and im already working hard to secure place for medicine ❤😊
All the best Ali!
@@RohanYesudian Thank you 😊 ❤
Update?
An excellent video regarding medical school applications. Will be so useful for the students applying. Wow and also a free e - book with all the info. GOD bless your heart Rohan. ♥️
Thank you amma
Your video is educative
Thank you!
hey! i'm an international student wanting to study medicine in the UK, but over here in australia we don't really need extracurriculars or anything for our uni applications since its generally based on academics for the most part so i never really got the chance to do any. if i can do work experience in a hospital and maybe volunteering at a library or something as well as have experience in an actual workplace setting (working at fast food) do you think it'll be sufficient for my application, or do you recommend something more?
What would you do if you never got an offer from Cambridge? Like mindest and how u would feel
Bro I'm in year 10 and the next year is my last year . What should I do ?
Hello Rohan! I was wondering if alongside adequate clinical/healthcare work experience, tutoring younger students in school would be classed as volunteer work. I was also wondering if for extra-curricular activities I would need to offer evidence, as I am a self-taught musician but wouldn't have the means to prove that when making my personal statement. Awesome video, thank you for offering such insight into the application process!
- Giselle
Hi Giselle, thanks for your kind words and questions. Yes tutoring would count as volunteering if it were offered for free. You don't need any qualifications for evidence as extra-curriculars, You only need to reflect on what you have learnt from them in your personal statement. Hope this helps!
@@RohanYesudian Thank you so much!
Wonderful Rohan
Thank you thatha!
Thank you Rohan !! Which one was your firm and insurance offer?.what should we keep in mind before that
My firm option was Cambridge and insurance was imperial college london
I am international student applying to cambridge medical school.i have great grades in biology math physics and chemistry.but what I lack is the work experience. I am in a boarding school and all i could do was tutor my juniors and give them assistance and give extra classes for below average students .
Could you please guide me on what more I could do?.
I really appreciate your videos and they are very informative and helpful
Thanks Fathima - are you applying this year? It's best to have some work experience in a healthcare setting if possible. Have you tried seeking virtual work experience opportunities? However, don't worry if you can't find work experience because medical schools are being more lenient as they acknowledge the disruption COVID has caused in getting work experience placements. In my ebook i link to a great video which gives more tips on how to find work experience
Thank you Rohan. Your videos were very informative and. I got admission in Cambridge. Is Peter House good for studying medicine or can I change the college after getting offer letter?
Please advise.
Thanks & Regards
Yes, it is good. I have emailed you a more detailed answer
Thanks for the video! any tips on getting 9's on GCSE?
I do have a video on how to get 9s at GCSE: czcams.com/video/Zjgd4aqQ-9o/video.html
If you want to get into medical school you need to have been to a Grammar school. If you’re still in school then you can do 12 plus or 13 plus to enter into a grammar school.
I haven't been able to arrange volunteer work. Would it be fine to do 3 months of volunteering at a care home from now until October?
yes that would be fine! It's not the length of the placement, but rather what you learnt from it that is the most important
if i did an EPQ (both myself and my extended essay in IB), how do I mentioned it? during my personal statement or in other ways? thank you!
You can mention it on your UCAS application by listing the EPQ alongside your other A-level qualifications. Or you can mention it in your PS too
I want to apply for medicine but it’s so hard finding work experience in my area I live in the North East and I’ve been searching everywhere 😩😩
Have you checked my ebook on this? I made some suggestions on other helpful resources for this. You don't necessarily need clinical work experience, you can do any type of work as your work experience so long as you can link the skills you develop to medicine
I feel you!!! I live in the Middle East and it seems like shadowing a doc/ finding any work experience as a high schooler is a foreign concept here. Im currently cold emailing every single hospital in my area 😂
Hi! I'm taking bio, chem, French and perhaps Italian too, I checked the cambridge website, and they said that they only require A levels of one of chemistry and one from either bio, human bio, physics etc (I forgot-) and they didn't specify the third subject, do you think I'd have a chance if I scored all A* on my A-levels? Please reply I've been dying to get this question answered 😭😭
Hi Zion, according to the Cambridge admissions webpage for medicine (www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/courses/medicine), although what you said is true, they do say that "Most applicants have at least three science/mathematics A Levels and some Colleges require this and/or particular subjects". So although a third maths/science subject is not required, you might have a competitive advantage of taking another maths/science subject, and taking the language as a 4th subject? However, you might want to check the individual college websites so see if there are any further requirements regarding A-level choices. Hope this helps!
Do you think my application will be strong if I do maths, biology, chemistry and an epq or do I need to do a 4th a level on top of that to get into a top university such as Oxford or Cambridge.
Hi Sankalpa, your application will be strong even without the 4th A-level. A 4th A-level is not necessary for Oxbridge, but I recommend doing one if possible. See this video for more information: czcams.com/video/0x9S53rhR8I/video.html
hey, how important are extra curricular? would it have a huge impact if i don’t have many?
It depends where you are applying. You don't need many extra-curriculars - it's more about what skills you develop from doing them. Oxford and Cambridge in particular do not look much at extra-curriculars
So you’re not supposed to have a 4 year undergrad degree to get into medical school in uk right? U can apply right after A levels?
yes that's correct. you can also apply as a graduate student - some universities have an accelerated course specifically for grad students
Apparently the BMAT has been discontinued. What does this mean for people who are going into Year 12 and 13 this year?
Yes you are correct. I have a short video coming out on this soon. Basically - all universities have now switched to the UCAT exam
@@RohanYesudian Thank you so much for the clarification. I'll make sure to watch it when it comes out :)
If you got rejected from Cambridge, how would you deal with it?
Hi sturge, I think I would try rationalise the situation and realise it is not the end of the world. But at the same time, I would be a bit disappointed I didn't get my first choice university
Hiii , what is the BMAT,MCAT AND UCAT? I 'm in year 11 but I do not really understand these terms fully yet but i will need them for year 12.
Hi - i recommend you check out my ebook on medical school admissions, which can be found in the description box of the video. This explains each term in greater detail
@@RohanYesudian Thank you
I'm too late ?
Did you get a fund as an international student or loan or it’s just on your own ?
I am a UK national not an international student
what is the eligibility for getting into mbbs for a student who is residing with parents in uk
I'm not sure of your specific circumstance. It will depend if you are a home (UK) or international student
you give ali abdal vibes :)
🙄
Do state school students with 10 GCSES stand a chance I'm Oxbridge medicine admissions? Or is it mainly just the private school and grammar school students?
You definitely have a chance of getting into Oxbridge medicine from a state school. It's not your background that is important, but rather your academic record and your enthusiasm for the subject
@@RohanYesudian Thanks for the response 😊
HOW do we contact you to help with interviews?
Hi Winston, it's best to email me at rohanyesudian@gmail.com
thanks!
How you got admission?
I made a video on this! czcams.com/video/_3Te3cFwV00/video.html
I have tried finding an email to send a message about the interviews but I couldn't find it so I sent a text via Instagram a few hours after you posted the video. I hope it's not an inconvenience for you.
Sure. My email is rohanyesudian@gmail.com
