Get Yourself an Unfair Advantage - The 'Get Into Med School' conference coming to a city near you soon.



Medical school applications are a daunting process. With increasing competition, A-level grade inflation, and limited numbers of places, increasing numbers of extremely gifted students are failing to secure a place at medical school.



Good grades are not enough. In order to secure a place at medical school, you will require an edge over other candidates. The good news is that many aspects of the application process can be prepared for; especially the writing of your personal statement and performance at interview. Both of these and much more will be covered by the 'Get Into Med School' conferences run by Medicine21 Ltd.

Don't underestimate the importance of a good personal statement - those not up to scratch will give the assessors the chance to throw your application unceremoniously on to the 'rejection' pile. Your performance at interview is another area which can be improved using a few simple strategies, which we will teach you.

Medicine21 Ltd was set up by a fully registered and licensed medical doctor in the United Kingdom. We are dedicated to helping you get into medical school in order to fulfill your ambition of becoming a fully-fledged doctor.

Unlike some courses which charge well over £150 for a single day's training, our best value course is available for just £130 for TWO full days of intensive learning, which works out as  just £65 per day and includes a FREE mock interview for every student. Just some of the outstanding features of our course are:
  • The main focus of our course is writing a good quality personal statement and successfully passing your interview.
  • Mock interviews conducted after structured teaching, in order to establish areas of strength and weakness and build your confidence in coping under pressure - at no extra cost.
  • How to take full advantage of the interview situation and sell yourself as a potential doctor.
  • Lecture, tutorial and workshop-style training sessions
  • Interactive learning, making use of multi-media technology and analysis of body language, communication styles, professional dress codes etc.
  • Personal Statement advice
  • Common interview questions
  • Discussion of medical ethics, common medical conditions and 'hot topics' in medicine.
  • Advice about choosing medical schools, gaining work experience, what to do if you don't succeed at the first attempt.
  • The course convenor is a fully qualified, registered and licensed medical doctor and will guide you through the course in a friendly, approachable way. The style will be professional but relaxed.
There is little doubt this training course will help to secure you an unfair advantage over other potential students. Once you are on your way to becoming a doctor, you may well look back at your 'Get Into Med School' day as a turning point.


Why take Medicine21 Ltd's 'Get Into Med School' training course?
  1. Our courses are very competitively priced at just £65 per person per day for two days' training. Other competitors charge over £150 for a single day. Our courses are efficient, focused and professional.
  2. Our training course is travelling around the UK and so we will be in your area, meaning you shouldn't have to travel long distances and stay in hotels to attend the course.
  3. As well as providing you with the skills and knowledge to pass your interview and secure a place at medical school, the things you learn will be useful for the rest of your life (confidence, interview skills).
  4. The course provides a mock interview, which is invaluable and is fully inclusive in the overall price of £130 for two days. Some competitors charge over £150 for a single day's training and over £50 for a mock interview - in our course both are included in the cost .
  5. Being so competitively priced and hopefully without travelling and hotel costs, even if you are not sure you want to be a doctor, we would welcome you to attend -  by the end of the two day course you will have a clearer idea about what medical school and a medical career actually entails and whether it is the right thing for you. Do not be put off if you have applied once and been rejected - this course could help you achieve success at the second attempt.
