This is a beautiful video and gives me great hope, I'm presently studying economics, but feel deeply driven to apply for GEM and am presently taking actions to do so. I hope to be applying next year. Hearing the journey's of others who have successfully applied for a GEM course is so important to me.
Well done Daniella.. I’m a grad medic going into 4th year (3rd year GEM).. started grad med in my 30s - never too late to start and I got ABB for A level too. Well done on your progress so far you’re smashing it.
I’ve finally got 4/4 offers on GEM courses, after reapplication. Can you please do more day in the life vlogs? I really enjoyed them when you did them, as Warwick is one of my options!
@@vane3330 hello, thank you! I did Biomedical Sciences for my undergrad, got onto Physician Associate studies and did a year but very quickly realised it wasn’t for me. I left that to pursue GEM. I applied and got into Kings, Warwick, Soton and Newcastle. I wanted KCL but the rent aspect kinda drew me out of London, but Newcastle just was too far for me! Haha. I worked as a phlebotomist on bank for multiple years, some HCA shifts too, and I did some time as a dental nurse. It’s more about what you take from the experience - any hands on, clinical work really helps. You need two separate experiences for Warwick, only one can be as shadowing. I actually plan to start my own way of documenting medical school, yet to decide where this’ll be but Daniela was so inspiring in that sense!
This is an incredible story, I really didn’t think this was possible - so many barriers begin to form mentally if you weren’t incredibly dedicated since you were 16 sitting those first GCSEs.
Thank you so much for this! I am currently doing my A-levels and I am feeling so demotivated with no medicine offers, this made me feel so much better and hopeful about the future!
Currently in second year at Warwick and this has been a large motivation booster! I've started working on applying with some work experience already under my belt and this has been the exact type of optimism I needed, tysm!!!
Thank you for the video, lol. I'm 20 years old (about to be 21). The thing is, I have not qualifications (due to complications...). I know that medicine is what i want to do. I've looked at every other career-role in healthcare and the only one that aspires me is the role of a doctor. Thing is, odds are stacked against me because of my age, and the time it will take for me to get to the point when i can apply to med school. A-levels (most common route into med) I don't believe are an option for me due to the sheer expense of them (needing 3 A-levels- It accumulates to thousands). My only other options are an access to medicine course at UCEN (QAA approved- all units at distinction) (btw, I'm from leeds so its far) or graduate entry medicine (last resort if the access course doesn't work for whatever reason). Though, obviously, graduate entry med will take a lot longer, lol. Just my two cents i thought i'd share. Good luck on your current journey!
I'm a student of Bsc. Cardiology in india. Currently doing an internship. Working in OTs, close to surgeons i realised this job is not for me, I'm made for something more. I started exploring career options, doing masters and PhD. But nothing gave me that excitement. I have spent 4 years in my bsc courses and I'm 21 currently, i thought of doing MBBS but it will take 5 years and it feels too much time. Today I found out about graduate entry mbbs. And I felt a little excited. Just need to figure out how the scholarships and entry works.
This is very interesting and hopeful. As a general rule most medical schools won’t consider your application unless you have been to grammar school. Especially Oxford and Cambridge who are very strict on entry. However pupils in mainstream secondary education can do the 12 plus or 13 plus exam to enable late entry into Grammar school and thus improve the certainty of getting a place in medical school. So there is hope. Good luck.
Hy I’m in 11th now still waiting for my igsce result of grade 10. I’ll choose bio,chem,phy/math in my a levels. Will hopefully drop all my grades as time goes buy and rlly want to be a medicine student in uk (from pak) !!
I worked full time for a few years before going into GEM, so I was able to save up to pay for the tuition fee in the first year. After that the tuition is funded by the NHS. I also applied for student finance (bursary & loan) and I work part time currently
Hi I hope you are well! I also did an undergrad degree first, I would love to read your personal statement as I know it slightly differs from the average personal statement for medicine! Of course, it's no problem if that's not possible! Thank you anyways

Hi Daniela, congratulations on your journey! I’m hoping to apply this year for Warwick too. What was your UCAT score if you don’t mind sharing? Or, will you make a UCAT video for tips? Thanks!
Thank you for this video! I was really disappointed with my UCAT score the first time around, but your video has been super helpful, and im hoping to give the test another attempt . I was able to hold an offer from the University of Buckingham this year, and as an international student, the tuition fee isn’t that different compared to other universities. However, I’m wondering if the quality of education or the value of my degree might be undervalued since it’s a private university. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this!
I’m working towards this too! Was just wondering if it’s mandodary to work as a HCA? Etc.. I am trying to arrange a lot of volunteer work etc.. but its hard to work while being a uni student 😅 and jobs are getting harder to apply to due to lack of care experience etc.. So was wondering what you actually did for WEX or volunteering?
Hi Daniela, I am planning on applying for GEM at Warwick and I'm very anxious about the application process (specifically the personal statement and the UCAT) I kind of feel I might not be good enough for it, I'm on my second year of Psych degree and I really want to go to Med school, any tips u could give me?
Heya! I'd make sure that you get as much work experience as you can that you can reference, and try to score as highly as possible on the UCAT exam to help your application be as competitive as possible!
@danielacbarragan thank you for replying 😊, just wondering, what type of work experience would you say looks better in the application? As in, what type of roles
Hmm definitely something that gives you experience working with patients directly (like volunteering at a care home, or working as a HCA). I'd also try to get some GP/hospital shadowing so you can get some insight into what working as a doctor is like!
@danielacbarragan I am struggling a lot finding a job as a HCA in the area I live, dk if this would be useful but I volunteer with a mental health crisis textline and I have applied for a job as a Cognitive Rehabilitation Assistant? I also volunteer in a nhs charity hub in the hospital but dk if that would count as it's in the shop and not a clinical role
Hi I was wondering if you know any pharmacist on the GEM course? I am in my pre-registration year and after I am considering studying medicine? Any tips or advice?
Hey!! Yes there are loads of pharmacists on my course. Tbh I think pharmacy is the most useful degree you can have before studying medicine. If it’s what you want to do then defo go for it!
Reason Buckingham has low entry ABB for undergrad medicine is due to cost as private university. Thing is spending over £200k , are you really going to get good return on investment been a doctor is UK as its not a upper high paid salary like USA.
Hello there. I hope you are doing well. Your video is giving me hope. I got 3BBB in Alevel bio,chem and math. I am a final year undergraduate student studying bio at a Uk uni. My goal is to graduate with 2:1 hopefully but the thing its so hard to believe in myself and keep hope .I will also apply for med school next year hopefully and I have work experience as I work as volunteer in NHS. Can you tell me what was your bachelors grade like 2:2 or like 2:1 or any other grades.Only if you are comfortable. And also do you have any tips for me. Thank you so much. We are proud of you. Keep its up. You will be a great doctor 🫂
Thanks for your comment!! I got a 1st in my BSc so try to aim as high as you can! I would also suggest getting as much clinical work experience as possible :)
@@danielacbarragan I am a bit scared. Cause I feel like I might graduate with a 2:1 and any idea how many hours in total will be good enough? Thank you for taking your time and responding
Some unis are happy with 70hrs (minimum and max) but I would recommended you to do as much as possible cause it will make your application stronger. So to conclude do 70hrs (minimum ) and for max do as much as possible as it will help you in the later future. Best of luck . If you are confused let me know
Heya! I got a tuition fee loan from SFE and applied for a grant/bursary from NHS bursaries. It's a bit complex so I'll make another video talking about funding soon x
Everyone says they have low grades but mine are actually diabolical. GCSEs from 4-5 and I didn't even do A-levels...I did the BTEC that everyone looks down on. Just graduated with a 2.1 in Biomedical Science and failed my UCAT... I told my parents and they were distraught...this means...I have to wait for 2026 entry...2 years. I'll be 25. God I feel like such a faliure. Maybe this isn't for me...I'm too stupid....I'll be too old. Everyone is ahead of me. I've been looking at med schools abroad that are GMC approved but the comoanies linking them seem so shady and they seem expensive. Should I just work for 2 years? God I feel like I've messed it all up. Fml. My parent's depend on me. Idk...I just look at my friends and people younger than me and feel so awful.

Hi i am now studying in year 12. With 2 non science Alevel and btech . Can i get into med school ? Or with a foundation degree. But most universities entry requirements need science Alevel. Can you suggest any possible ways to get in med school.
Hi! I would say make sure you research potential medical schools and look at the entry requirements. You need to meet the minimum requirements to make sure your application can be successful
Your videos are so motivating and inspiring to me as a Year 13 med applicant. I really hope you continue to post consistently because I genuinely think you will get far with youtube. ❤
What????? Graduate Medicine is still medicine but accelerated, they are accepted world wide because you are getting the same degree and even then, there are EU Med School who have shorter grad systems as well…. Please do better research Also not all GEM are 4 years, depending on the uni you can be 5+ years.
@@kins5445 Again, the years it has taken you to do Med school does not matter, as long as you have real, accredited medical degree from the UK, you can literally work anywhere…. I think you have read false information or are making up lies for whatever reason.
I clicked on this video to find out the guidelines to get into medicine only to find a typical 304 talking about herself, thank you for wasting my time
Thank you for the comment! I’ll make another video about the guidelines to get into Medicine as that wasn’t the aim of this video. As the title suggests, this was how I got into GEM, so naturally I would be speaking about myself & my own experience :)

@@komalkaur4364think just a 2:1 in general hun, don’t think unis are going to calculate percentages like that 😊
@@sadesekoni1231 thank you so much😊
How old were u when you started medical school?
I was 25
Your videos are so motivating and inspiring to me as a Year 13 med applicant. I really hope you continue to post consistently because I genuinely think you will get far with youtube. ❤
Aw thanks so much!!
does Universtiy of Warwick offer scholarships to graduate entry international medical students?
Mmm I don’t think so. I’d double check on their website, or try to email/phone them to make sure!
I did bs zoology I m also eligible for study medicine
Nice!
Dude, GEM programs are not recogised in EU countries. Medical degree is 5/6 years.
What????? Graduate Medicine is still medicine but accelerated, they are accepted world wide because you are getting the same degree and even then, there are EU Med School who have shorter grad systems as well…. Please do better research
Also not all GEM are 4 years, depending on the uni you can be 5+ years.
@@sadesekoni1231 check European Commission website, medicine is 5/6 years programme
GEM programmes are recognised in the EU!
@@danielacbarragan But only 5+ years programs, check EU directive on higher education
@@kins5445 Again, the years it has taken you to do Med school does not matter, as long as you have real, accredited medical degree from the UK, you can literally work anywhere…. I think you have read false information or are making up lies for whatever reason.
I clicked on this video to find out the guidelines to get into medicine only to find a typical 304 talking about herself, thank you for wasting my time
Thank you for the comment! I’ll make another video about the guidelines to get into Medicine as that wasn’t the aim of this video. As the title suggests, this was how I got into GEM, so naturally I would be speaking about myself & my own experience :)
needless for you to worry because with your attitude you should stay far away from patients
So rude for what wtf ew you’re so disgusting for that
