Which Medical school?
Hi! My son sat UKCAT yesterday. We live in Ireland. He's intent on studying Medicine in Dublin, also applying to UK to keep all options open. Which are the best UK colleges to apply to? Thinking of QUB, Edinburgh, Cardiff, UEA. Apparently, Irish students have a chance of getting into some colleges more easily than others! Would appreciate advice re. college selection. Also, advice re. pros & cons of ROI v. UK schools. Many thanks. (Source: New Media Medicine)

Any Chance??ty and tr
Hi So a couple of years back I got a 3rd class degree in Biomedical Sciences. I had a lot of problems during my time at uni, I was naive and thought that I could suppress them and still carry on uni as normal. However they came back to bite me and uni was a bad time for me especially during my final year. Afterwards I was in limbo, working in retail for a few months. Then I found out about the Open University . I transferred my credits towards a BSc degree from them and hope to graduate next year, hopefully with a 2.1 or a 1st.
I was wondering if there is any chance of me applying to medicine. I always wanted to study me...

Uni choices with low UKCAT
Hi guys,
I just sat my UKCAT test and unfortunately I got a pretty mediocre score. (Average 600).
What make it even worse is that I am an international student:( Obviously English held me back in the VR section. I know my chance getting into med seems to be extremely low right now, but I still want to give it a shot.
These are my intended choices:
UCL(This is my dream school...I will be sitting BMAT in November)
Liverpool
Edinburgh
Bristol
I am doing International Baccalaureate Diploma in Australia. Currently my predicted score is 42 out of 45, with both Chemistry and Biology at higher level predicted to be 7 out of 7...

Best Foundation School for Surgical Training?
I'm a final year medical student and am wondering where I'm likely to get information on which foundation schools provide better training for surgery/robust rotation?
Or if anyone has personal anecdotes about which hospitals/foundation schools are good, I'd be eternally grateful!
Thanks! (Source: New Media Medicine)

Gamsat exam 2015
Hi everyone,
How did everyone find the exam?
Section 1 and 2 could of been worse. Even though, writing about "art" was slightly ambiguous.
Section 3, well it was section 3. Seemed different to the Irish exam. A lot more reasoning rather than learnt material needed for the UK version. A lot less physics as well! Maybe the Irish is more geared towards science grads and the UK one geared towards non science grads (humanities). (Source: New Media Medicine)

Unusual problem, need solving
Hello, I have very unusual problem. For now I study in Prague, Czech Republic in college. This college has graphics specialization and doesn't have chemistry, biology and physics. I really want to study at Medical School in England but schools there doesn't have entrance exams and relies only on A-Levels. I am studying for med school at home and I go to the preliminary course for med schools in Czech Republic.
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Will I have to complete another A-Levels?
If I go study Med School for one year in Czech Republic, can I enter first year of Medical School in England?
Please, I need your h...
