Medic Mentoring Scheme

Taking place between July and December, the Medic Mentoring Scheme is open students attending state-maintained schools in Year 12 England/Wales, Year 13 Northern Ireland, and S5 Scotland, who are applying for medical courses at UK universities including Oxford and Cambridge.

Participants will have an account set up for them on our e-platform and will be paired with a current clinical medic at Emmanuel. Through more formal interactions via our webinar series and more informal interactions with a mentor via the e-platform, the scheme aims to help guide participants through the application process and prepare them to make competitive applications.

Webinars will cover:

  • Introduction to the Scheme and Approaching the UCAT
  • Writing a Personal Statement for Medicine (led by an Admissions Tutor)
  • Approaching Cambridge Medicine Interviews (led by an Admissions Tutor)

Participants will also receive:

  • Written feedback from their mentor on a personal statement draft
  • A mock interview

The entire programme is free of charge.
