Back by popular demand, our award winning fast-track, getting into medical school summer Cram Camp is back. Delivered by renowned UK doctors, this Cram Camp is like NOTHING that you've seen before. Simply imagine two full days covering every single aspect of the application process, going in depth and highlighting top tips and tricks that will help you succeed.
The harsh reality is there are 65,000+ applicants each year, and only approximately 7,500 places available at medical school within the UK. We know that you must be exceptional to get an offer - this is why during these two full days we want to cover fine details and important aspects that will place you at the top of the applications pile.
During these two jam-packed days, you will learn the theory behind a winning application but most importantly will have the opportunity to put all the tips into practice. By the end of Day 1 you'll have the first draft of your personal statement ready and you'll be equipped with top tips and strategies on how to ace the UCAT. Day 2 focuses on inside tips and tricks from the top 10% medical school interview applicants as well as equipping you with the right strategies and techniques to ace the upcoming BMAT.
We know you'll love it - the Cram Camp is our yearly flagship event covering the medical school application process from A to Z. Packed with hands-on interactive activities, this event will be delivered by renowned UK doctors and authors of the international bestselling book 'The Unofficial Guide to Getting into Medical School'.
