I represent a group of Doctors and medical
educators, who having been through the medical application process have realised
that there is a real lack of availability of good quality information about
becoming a Doctor. Our 'Get into Medical School and Become a Doctor' course
will empower students to achieve their ambition by demystifying the application
process, giving them the essential knowledge and skills to succeed. We
endeavour to increase access for those who may otherwise have been put off
applying, whilst better informing those that may be more suited to other career
pathways.
Our interactive seminars will be delivered by a variety
of experienced medical professionals, all of whom currently work in the NHS as
senior doctors but are still fresh enough to remember what it feels like to
apply to medical school. Additionally, sitting on interview panels at prominent
Medical Schools gives us a unique perspective on the differing challenges facing
medical school applicants, from the quality of personal statements to interview
skills.
We'll give students a taste of what life as a medical
student is really like, both academically and socially, from the eyes of current
medical students. Real Doctors will give a glimpse of their life in the NHS and
talk about the types of personalities that are suited to different specialities
in medicine. The course includes information about applying through UCAS, a
guide on writing medically orientated personal statements, how to choose
universities and how to pass entrance
examinations.
A further course covering Medical School Interview Skills will be held prior to the commencement of medical
interviews.
There are three Courses during
September; Leicester (14th September – prices in brackets), University College London (21st September) and Kings College London Guys Campus (28th September).
Course tickets are £50 per ticket and include a light
lunch (if booked more than two weeks before the course), but for bookings of
over five tickets please email us direct for discounts. We are also able to
provide bespoke seminars for institutions directly if required so if you would
like further information on this or anything else please do not hesitate to
contact us.
To book a Course go to www.aspire2medicine.co.uk or search Facebook for “Aspire 2

I have attached a Course Flyer detailing the event.
Please could you circulate this to whomever you feel may benefit, including
career’s advisors, science departments and interested students to help
us reach as many potential future medics as
possible.
