In our first meeting, I got the opportunity to get to know my UAC better, introduce myself and some of the goals I hope to achieve by the end of the year. Beforehand, I researched a couple of universities that I’ve been considering such as Imperial College London, King’s College London and the University of Melbourne.
UNIVERSITY | LOCATION | REQUIRED IB SCORE | ADDITIONAL TESTS REQUIRED | ANNUAL TUITION FEE |
Imperial College London | UK | 38 | BMAT | 73620 SGD |
King’s College London | UK | 35 | UKCAT | 63770 SGD |
University of Melbourne | Australia | 38 | None (for undergraduate) | 40900 SGD |
Afterwards, I made a spreadsheet of universities in the UK and Australia which included courses for Medicine. I researched in detail making sure to include the duration of the course, specific degree and the specific grades required, especially for my HL subjects.
Until my next meeting, I need to research further into the aptitude tests, especially UKCAT as I will definitely be taking it for UK medical schools.
