medicine

[terse glacier]

hey
i am doing my a levels rn (AS) and i wanted to know what steps or further information i need in order to pursue my medical career like what courses, university
Exams and etc

[untold harbor]

depends on which country youre from fr

ask ur counsellor which med schools are good in the country u want to apply to

make a list

research as well

[terse glacier]

Thats what i am trynna do here

😭

[untold harbor]

i meant literally google

"top med schools in (country name)"

[terse glacier]

Oh

[untold harbor]

fr

[terse glacier]

Fair

Thanks mate

[untold harbor]

after that you would want to see the requirements of those unis

do they require specific subs from you in a levels? maybe , maybe not

gotta find that out

[terse glacier]

If for example they require like 4subs and i take 3

[untold harbor]

then what are the minimum grade requirements for you to get admission

[terse glacier]

I go onto A2

Like suould i give give exam for 4th subs

[untold harbor]

youre not going to apply to one uni

you will be applying to 4-5 unis

if you see all ask for 4, then mate

either change yo country or take the 4th sub

[terse glacier]

Can i apply now? Im in AS

Or should i do it after A2?

[untold harbor]

when is ur AS exam

[terse glacier]

Jan and may

[untold harbor]

jan???

[terse glacier]

January and may

[untold harbor]

bruh

brotha got the weirdest schedule

[terse glacier]

Why?💀

[untold harbor]

when is ur A2

[terse glacier]

After May ofc

😭

[untold harbor]

nvm i thought ur giving composites

anyway

[terse glacier]

Nup

[untold harbor]

for now fr focus on AS

cause a lot of unis accept u based on ur AS grades

[terse glacier]

Nah seriously?💀

[untold harbor]

yeah

[terse glacier]

So AS>A2?

[untold harbor]

you apply with ur AS grades, but before A2 exams. so they see ur AS grades and predicted grades ur school makes on you based on ur AS grades + grade 12 performance

then unis can accept you without conditions - which means without seeing ur A2 grades

IF only you meet and exceed the grade requirements

[terse glacier]

I mean if i AM PRIVATE STUD?💀😂😗

[untold harbor]

ffs bud yo aint got no plus point here to work with befr

[terse glacier]

💀💀💀💀

Nvmm

[untold harbor]

anyway

[untold harbor]

if you dont meet the requirements

they give you conditions

for example

3B in A2

depends on uni ofc

since youre trying for med, the requirements will most likely be skyhigh

[terse glacier]

Have u taken bio?

Hows life?

[untold harbor]

[ionic iron]

Idk bro. My uni said do IELTS then prepare for ucat for next year. Also you need to start applying early because it’s very competitive

Especially uk

I got bunch of uk uni vouchers lol

[terse glacier]

[terse glacier]

Without completing A levels?

[ionic iron]

I mean apply before results ya get a conditional offer

Idk i will let you more once i get to know more

[wide gyro]

What if you get bad grades in your A2 exam, like they’re below your predicted grades, what happens then? They take away your scholarship?

[untold harbor]

well

if you get unconditionally accepted based off AS and predicted grades

it doesnt rlly matter what you get in a2

you would just need to send in your grades and like graduation completion certificate for their record that you did complete it

[wide gyro]

Aaah

[untold harbor]

for scholarship im not sure

might get hampered

but admission shouldnt afaik

[thorn ether]

Hihi! I was looking into doing psych as well... I am struggling with what country I should look into (the countrgy I originally wanted to study in had limited unis with the degree)
I would like to hear what u did and how u came to the decision! (thanks)

Hii! I have a couple of questions regarding uni admissions. So, for context I want to do MBBS but I wouldn't mind BDS either. I understand that for both of these career options, I'll need to clear up MDCAT before looking to apply

My problem is the backup options. My career councilor wants me to apply to other programs (biotech, genetics, microbiology etc) in case I don't get into MBBS or BDS

But I don't understand how I should go about applying in these programs...Am I supposed to start applying after A2 results or is right now the best time to apply? I've been looking at my local unis for admission in 2024 but none really show open admissions or anything like that. I'm so confused rn. Maybe my questions are stupid but I really need someone to guide me 🙏

[smoky widget]

ok idk anyth ab mdcat or med in pakistan but most uni apps open like jan-march and close latest june (?) and u apply with ur a2 predicted grades
