Thanks for sharing your story and thanks Ollie for interviewing her. It’s great to know it can be done. I’ve been a nurse for 10 years and would love to study medicine
You’re the best Ollie! Thank you for interviewing Emily! Both of you are such an inspiration to me and others. ✨👏🏼 All the best to you both!
I have seen her starting off as a carer in a nursing home while at School, joining St John Ambulance and becoming a community first responder, go right through her nursing training and qualify. She was a damn good nurse in the time she worked as one, as she was a carer, St John member and CFR and put her all into every one of those files in the time she was doing it. Does it matter if she has now gone on to do her medicine training as surely doing her time as nurse will only make her a better Doctor and as for wasting a space, I have seen hospitals short staffed on too many occasions to know that couldn't be further from the truth, they need every nurse they can get.
Leighton Page yes it matters because it was a taxpayer-funded place she took knowing full well she would never have stayed in the profession
@@ffi1001 and the skills she learned will stay with her and make her a better doctor. It's not been a waste of tax payers money in any way shape or form. To say otherwise is just ridiculous!
Fantastic video. I’m an ITU nurse looking to follow in your footsteps. Well done on getting into medicine and good luck with your training
Thank you Emily you are very inspiring I have just finished my adult nursing course 2020. I would love to have a job as doctor.
fabulous video ollie....hope you are fine...
i am so tired i returned hone at 1am after diwali shopping..i just love your videos!
So cool to see this! I’m a nursing student aiming to do medicine afterwards as I didn’t quite have the grades from school either but so far am definitely on track grades wise for medicine!
Wow she is a well rounded person.
She will be a great wanderful doctor.
Wish her lots of success :)
She's a fantastic doctor! We're both in our second year of practice now and she's applied for her specialty training.
Thank you so much for sharing!
What universities offer this transition? Do you need any previous qualifications such as 7-9 in GCSE or can you apply directly from the Nursing Degree alone
Excellent video thank you.. I'm an Indian nurse working in the UK , is there any problem being an overseas? also what exam should I need to take to get into med school? Hoping for your reply 😃
Can you do a video on radiographer to medicine. I'm currently doing therapeutic radiography and really enjoy it atm. And the level of anatomy has made me really interested in medicine and maybe in the future I might apply for post grad entry medicine but I guess I'll just take everything as it comes
As luck would have it I believe there is a radiographer who has just started at Warwick! Will try and sort that
@@OllieBurtonMed Thank you. It will be very interesting what they think as i dont think my course has much depth into the anatomy. But we learn a lot about cancer and so on and radiation. However i heard diagnostic radiography is much different to therapeutic radiography as theres less patient contact and less about treatment and more about getting good medical imaging.
@@jismy012 For sure, the feedback that I tend to gather is that radiographers are very surprised by the sheer amount of anatomy that medics need to know! But they get on with medicine as well as any other profession so I'd hugely encourage you to apply
@@OllieBurtonMed my favourite anatomy book is snells clinical anatomy for first years and it helped me to understand the medical lingo so when someone says something you can just break the words down and understand what they mean. but im unsure if i should apply as i dont have any a levels but im set to get a 2:1 atm in my course
Did she work will studying in medschool?
I wanted to be a Doctor, as I was doing my A-levels, unfortunately at this time I had some difficulties in life, and didn’t get the grades acquired nor did I pass the Gamsat, however I took a few years out of Education, I’m now 24 finishing an access to health course and hoping to enrol on a paediatric nursing course in September, I would like to ask, how you found yourself in a position to apply for medicine and how long does this route take from starting a nursing degree to finishing medical school and qualifying as a doctor?
Hi there! In terms of how long it takes, it's 3 years for the nursing degree + 4 or 5 years of medical school depending on the exact course you join, so 7-8 years in total after which you'd be a newly qualified doctor. Beyond that it's usually 5-10 years of further training to become a specialist/consultant.
Em worked for several years as an A&E nurse and then applied for medicine, and she has just passed finals so is now a doctor!
I am a registered nurse in UK since early 2020.I dream to become a doctor..Is it hard to enter into a graduate entry programme?And will I be able to work along with the studies?Also how about the fees and student loans?
Competition is around 20 applicants per place for graduate entry medicine, so it is reasonably hard but very achievable. You can work alongside studies but usually not in the first year due to the intensity of the course. Fees wise you have to pay approximately £3500 at the start of the course but everything else is covered by student loans. If you want to study a 5 year programme then it costs £9250 per year
Hi. How much is the tuition in med school per year in total? It’s my dream too. I hope youll notice this query 😊
It's £9250 per year in the UK, as are all degree courses usually. If you're studying on a 5 year undergraduate course or a 4 year graduate entry course then it's covered by student loans (apart from 3.3K in Y1 of grad entry medicine). It's a lot more for international students so will depend on your choices!
How long gone to taken from a nursing degree to medical school to finish?
As a nurse do you have to start the first year of medical school or 3rd year of medical school?
I hope I will hear from you .
Will answer this here - you have to start from the first year of medical school. A nursing degree does not save any time off the medical course as the courses are completely different.
Next year I will complete my Nursing dgree, I am from Pakistan..
I wanna do medicine, guide me about the college, which college I should join after Bsc Nusring...
Hi Sonia, I’m also from Pakistan and I’m going to start my nursing program this year. Is it possible for you to tell me how tough nursing is from looking at our education system in Pakistan.
Depends on alot of factors. One thing I would say is get some nursing experience before you apply. Itll look excellent on your application.
Hello, liked the video. What university did you go to? To become a doctor 👩⚕️
This is Ollie answering this, but Emily's at Warwick Medical School (reliable source, she's my housemate!)
Lol.. Are you a nurse?
Im register Nurse in Egypt... Can i apply in Medical school in UK?
Best to email the medical schools you want to apply to! ☺️
@@OllieBurtonMed is it eligible to work and study at the same time?
@@hopaomran6264 For the first year it is difficult as you have very little time, but after that it can be done, yes!
@@OllieBurtonMed so it might be difficult to work as a nurse??
How many years course to become doctor after bsn.
In the UK it's either 5 if you do an undergraduate course or 4 if you do a graduate entry course
@@OllieBurtonMed thanks for your response ✌😍
Hi did she have to re do any levels or college courses
Just asked her - nope!
@@OllieBurtonMed omg that’s great thankyou
Any entry requirements for transition?
@@covinbrown2935 Most GEM programmes just ask for a 2.1 in a science subject (although not all demand a science degree), some amount of work experience and some consider your A levels.
Well done English doctor in training. Now do not run away from NHS after qualifying.
No offence but she obviously knew she never wanted to be a nurse so it was in essence a waste of a nursing place.
Would you rather she sat on her a*** all day instead? No offence but given the huge shortage in nurses currently in the NHS, I would take someone who gives 100% treating and caring for patients when the alternative is someone who writes comments undermining those hard workers!
James Simpson no but it was place that could have been given to someone who wanted to be in the profession not as a stepping stool to get into medicine
She gave three years service to the NHS, thats pretty good - I’m a nurse and a lot of the people I trained with either dropped out during the course or only lasted a year or two before quitting nursing to do something completely different because of the hard working conditions (permanently understaffed, no breaks etc). Plus everything she learnt as a nurse won’t be a waste, patients will benefit from that knowledge and experience when being cared for by her as a doctor
@@ffi1001 When there is a 23% reduction in the number of applicants and the NHS relies on nurses from overseas I don't think there are people who that place could have gone to www.nursingtimes.net/news/education/nursing-course-applicants-remain-down-by-23-at-final-deadline/7019446.article?search=https%3a%2f%2fwww.nursingtimes.net%2fsearcharticles%3fqsearch%3d1%26keywords%3dbrakes
James Simpson yes but when she trained the course was FREE or rather the taxpayer paid
Did she work will studying in medschool?
