A Day in the Life of a London Medical Student (KCL)

Today I walk you guys through a day in the life of a medical student studying at a London (UK) university! In my case that is King's College London, although Cambridge and Oxford medical schools will likely be very similar! Throughout the day I try to be as efficient as possible with my time. It's kind of like a medical school vlog. Although the day involves a lot of studying there is always time to relax and have some fun! Whether thats playing ping pong, playing basketball, or grabbing some lunch in the nearby market.

[@lightandnightEQUINOX]

So jealous Your med school is so chill Would kill to have class start at 8 or podcasted classes. Over here at the Philippines we are required to attend every lecture in person from 7am to 6pm with a schedule with only a short lunch break. Traffic is also pretty bad so most have to out and about by 5 to 6am and get back home at 8pm without starting any actual study work done.

[@KharmaMedic]

7-6 sounds very intense 😳

Kharma Medic keeping my sanity somehow. Good luck to you as well in med. may we all pass. 😁

[@mbbsstudymat]

Same in India! Students leave home at 7am and return at 7pm. They can only play games on holidays

[@faithfawole7711]

Also the same thing here in South Africa, I feel as if I don't have a life sometimes, I wake up at 4am during week days, have to use my dormitory bus to get to campus at 7:30 latest cause class starts at 7:45am we only get a 1 hour break at 13:00 pm, then we are back at it until 17:00 pm, then I might get back to my dormitory at 22:00 depending on class schedules, but honestly no matter where you are in the the world, the honest truth is that Medical school INTERNALLY is really tough 🤔

[@wasifali7597]

Great video mate! Life at Med school in the UK looks pretty relaxed! Definitely going to be one of my options when applying!

Hey Wasif thanks so much 😁 When comparing the course to some of my friends in the US and Canada it definitely seems more relaxed. But also keep in mind this one video doesn't represent all of UK medicine haha
