The Get into Medicine or Get Into Dentistry Conference is a complete guide to the medical or dental application journey. Students get essential insights into the medical/dental UCAS application process (such as the NEW emphasis on extracurricular activities), connect with professionals, fellow students, and gain a deeper understanding of a future career in medicine or dentistry.
During this conference, Dr Kennedy, Dr Safiyyah and I will guide students through essential topics such as:
– Application Timelines
– How to Tactically Choose Medical/Dental Schools
– CV Building
– Personal Statements – New format from 2026
– Medical/Dental School Interviews
– UCAT – Entrance Exams to Medical/Dental School
– Medical Leadership and Awards Programmes
– Accessing Work Experience
– Accessing Scholarships
Students will need to ensure they have a functioning camera and microphone for the session. It’s also important that they have a parent or guardian present at these conferences, not only for safeguarding, but also to gain insight and guidance to support them effectively.
Our doctors, dentists and medical/dental students look forward to welcoming students at the conference and they will join our network of successful students who attended these programmes over the last ten years: https://medicmentor.org/successful-student-journeys-reviews/
