Biomedical Sciences Q&A - Everything You Need to Know! | Atousa

[@gillian2107]

I'm in year 12 and your videos have helped me out a lot! There aren't a lot of biomedical youtubers so i'm glad i found your channel 😊

[@atousa5752]

aw that's great to hear lovely! I'm glad the videos are helping you out :)

[@bilalazizi1]

Huge respect to you for choosing your words cautiously. "Well known universities"

[@anisaimnazrie7708]

Hi, I’m a second year Biomedical student at Glasgow Caledonian University. So far, I’m loving the course despite the workloads every week. Also, the course here is also accredited by the IBMS! Glad I’ve made the right decision. Love your videos honestly! ❤️😊

[@aiswaryapradeep6840]

Hi, is it really that difficult to study as ppl say??

[@selahjack4986]

I'm a high school student and you have convinced me that this is the field I want to go into!! Thanks so much for breaking it down for me

[@atousa5752]

you are more than welcome, I wish you all the best with it :)

[@hirvaparmar9089]

Hey Atousa! I am a recent graduate who wants to do masters in biomedical science in the UK. It's really difficult figuring things out as an international student, but your videos help a lot in bringing clarity. Thank you!

[@DeborahhXO]

I'm studying biomedical science now and I'm so happy I've come across your channel ❤️

[@atousa5752]

aw that's so awesome! welcome to the family!!! :)

[@prettygurl2]

I’m in year 12, soon be applying to uni, my friends were putting me down by saying I won’t get a job in this field and it’s a useless degree, thank you very much for your videos I swear I have become more passionate about the subject and can not wait tot study it in university! Your videos have helped to explore and learn more about the course and I’m glad I have learned so much and will know I’ve made the right decision 😊❤️

[@chloe8480]

This video was so helpful, thank you so much! I've learnt more about the degree in this video than all the research I've done into it :)

[@atousa5752]

aw I'm very glad to hear! and you are more than welcome lovely :)

[@kitsunecinnamon]

I have a few questions, rather late than never right? Is post graduate necessary to secure a job with Biomedical Sciences? Would it be worth it for someone in their late 20's to start studying this?

[@atousa5752]

I don't think it is necessary, but it depends on the job! If there is a certain job you have in mind, have a look to see specifically what they need before deciding to study :)

[@Ziggy_Jones]

So I'm currently at the end of the second year of Uni So applying for a masters has been on my mind lately. Although my course is not really related to your course (I'm studying Archaeology & Anthropology) the tips and advice you gave seemed really helpful :) Definitely good to make contacts in the field you want to be in even before you apply. Thanks!

[@atousa5752]

Aw best of luck with it all, and I'm so glad to hear they help! But by all means if you have any generic questions about non-specific courses let me know and I'll try and make a video on them :) I know that can be useful to lots of others like yourself! :)

[@jordynpereira9027]

This helped me so much thank you for all the help I’m in a levels and I was very confused so thank you

[@sunbalnoreen3034]

Hi, i am gonna start first year of biomedical science and i am really interested to work at hospital labs. So just wanted to ask what type of modules should i choose in 2 year and also after finishing my degree can i get a job. Or do i have to do master in biomedical science first? Thanks

[@maryannrodas7075]

Thank you! This video was really helpful, Im an undergrad in NY and I'm really interested in doing a masters in biomedical science and am starting my research on what I need to know to get in to a program! This video was super helpful

[@atousa5752]

I'm very glad to hear that lovely :) that sounds amazing! best of luck

[@aiswaryapradeep6840]

Did u get into a college??

[@mohamedallajabo1422]

Thx! Your video is really useful. What is your advice for someone who had a longtime break from education?? Also is there any certain things i need to refresh on right now? Just a bit worried as i will start this Sep BIOMED.

[@atousa5752]

I would say do as much preparation as you can! There isn't anything specific you have to refresh on, but if you know there are things you personally don't feel confident with, it is good to read them over. Best of luck for September! :)

[@bhava4795]

Thank you so much for this video! I'm currently in year 12 and am planning on studying biomedical sciences at University. Do you have any tips and things to look for at university open days?

[@atousa5752]

Aw that's awesome! best of luck with it all! and yes quite a few so I will make a video about it! Thanks for the suggestion :)

[@isabellawhite2140]

Hi Atousa, I'm in year 11 and I know I want to definately follow a career in medicine and become a practicing doctor. However, I am also very interested in biomedical science as the research aspect appeals a lot to me and so does the subject content. I was wondering about which medicine route you recommend and if you know what the research opportunities there are if I only do medicine. Would it be worth doing biomedical sciences with the intent to pursue a graduate medicine degree afterwards, or should I just apply to undergraduate medicine? If the overlap between the two degrees content are quite big and you still get research opportunnites within a medical degree then I will just apply for medicine. Thank you, and sorry for all the questions! :))

[@atousa5752]

hello lovely! aw these are all great questions, I am going to make a video addressing them if that's okay? because I can go into more detail! and don't be sorry for asking questions! :)

[@isabellawhite2140]

atousa Of course, I look forward to it! I wish you all the best in your medicine application and I think you will be a great doctor! :)

[@Ievashh]

Thank you so much!! This was really needed!

[@atousa5752]

You're more than welcome sweetie :)

[@husseinplays5159]

Can you please tell me what's the difference between biomedical science and medical laboratory science. And if I finished biomedical science can I work in diagnostic laboratories in hospitals or in any medical center ?? Because i really want to work in hospitals and I want to know if this is possible as a biomedical science degree or it requires MLS

[@Iamme-rk7ki]

Hello may I ask a question? Is being practical is very important while learning biomedical sciences?

[@sisamrai6214]

Is it possible to do medicine after doing the biomedical science degree?

[@atousa5752]

yes absolutely :)

[@jessicaf.636]

What's the difference between IBMS registration and HCPC registration?

[@evanskaci5736]

Hello! I am interested in biomedical science. Can I finish general medicine to pursue this field?

[@Mehdz03]

You do this before general medicine

[@limitmakumbi4731]

Hi am bryan from Lusaka Zambia,and I will be doing my diploma in biomedical science at Everlyn hone college.what tips do you for me...what are the best and challenges of starting with a diploma other than going straight for a degree?

[@messymakersmind]

Hey! Sorry I see you published this back in 2017. I was wondering if you could answer a quick question I have. Does biomedical science involve a lot of chemistry, as this is my weakest bit.

[@huckletoontown1910]

Yes

[@cianle5996]

Is the Healthcare Science degree is a better route to become biomed scientist ? Because from what i have researched this degree is accredited with ibms and you will complete your portfolio within 3 years of the course

[@Kwippy]

It seems you must decide before applying to uni if you want to do an accredited or non-accredited course, but in what ways are the teachings different? Can you highlight them?

[@exceptionallyod9575]

Hey Atuosa, great video. I am almost done with my bachelor's in a biological science and I'm looking at a master's in biomedical science. What's your advice? Do you think it would be possible?

[@joekelly7785]

Do you know much about a biochemistry degree vs biomedical? I'm going back as a mature student and these are the two I'm looking at at the moment. Probably going to be most interested in either research or writing/journalism. It seems that biochem is more specialised, maybe? Would that seem accurate?

[@Victoriaxx08]

Joe Kelly hey I’ll try to answer your question! I graduated from biochemist at the university of Ottawa so it may be different depending on where you go. At uOttawa my biochem degree was much more research focused and demanding compared to the biomed program. My school designed biomed for students who want to write the mcat, so they take psych, bioethics, and English as well as the science courses. For biochem we took more “lab” courses (6 hour weekly in lab only courses). It was generally known at my school that biochem was harder than biomed. But in the end you can do the exact same thing career wise. It’s almost identically the same at my school. At other schools I would assume biochem is more protein focused and more physics-y while biomed is more biologically focused?

[@basharalzohily7017]

Thanks for this. I finished my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Chemistry. Is it a good idea to complete my Ph.D. in Biomedical science as I am so interested in Biochemistry or molecular biology research?. Or I will struggle in it?

[@gobenagemeda3051]

I've made a few videos about personal statements, and I've even shared my own in a video :) maybe take a look at those!

[@Pasinduhs]

Hi! I'm studying biomedical science in Australia and this is my first year. I would like to know if it is necessary to have a PhD or Masters to do research..?

Hey Atousa. I find your videos really helpful. :) I do have one query though. i am confused as to what i should pursue Microbiology or Biomedical Science ? Looking forward to your response . Thank you . :)

[@atousa5752]

Hello :) I'm so glad to hear that! I have made a video on how you should choose a university course and talk about some options so you might find that useful, but generally I would say don't worry too much because the first year of both of those degrees is the same (or it was in my university) and it really depends if you want a more specialised degree, or a more general one like biomed :)

[@Victoriaxx08]

I went into biochem and then after 1st year I added “an option in microbiology” so instead of taking the super hard chemistry courses I was able to take micro courses! I had no idea my school offered this until I got there so perhaps your general biomed program my offer the ability to specialize in micro

[@fizzasikandar852]

Hey Atousa ! your videos r really helpful and amazing. I would like to ask u which kind of work experience is required for biomed sciences undergraduate degree and how to write a good personal statement for this. It would be really helpful if u make a video on this or at least reply me. Thank you :)

[@victorodhiambo1763]

am Victor from kenya, i like your video but my question is ...whats the difference between biomedical science and medical laboratory science

[@atousa5752]

Hi Victor! I have never heard about medical laboratory science, but it sounds like it could be similar to biomedical sciences - I'm sorry I don't have a better answer!

[@victorodhiambo1763]

[@mdhabiburrahman8560]

Really, your videos so helpful to me

[@Ariabookbites]

Hi Atousa, what is the difference between Bachelor of medical science and Biomedical science. I know that there is a biomedical science major within my course degree? I am planning to study medical science at uws in Australia.

[@atousa5752]

Hello :) biomedicine is more science and research, where is medicine you train to be a doctor who sees patients in clinics :) good luck in your studies!!

[@celindadelapenaa7596]

Hi... Do you think biomedical science is similar to nursing? Is biomedical science more of being in a lab and discovering? I am interested in caring for others, but i can not become a nurse because of personal difficulties, do you think this would this work for me? Is it similar? Thank you

[@hariseja9531]

You can do a biomedical science degree and then a 2 years masters in Physician Associate which is basically a junior doctor but less roles , so it’s similar to a nurse with higher pay

[@roohullahkhan3058]

Do CRNA schools accept biomedical science degree..?

[@pristineakarifujimaki]

I am a sophomore in high school and am very interested in studying biomedical sciences. I`ve always wanted to research and learn about allergies and that is what drew me into this field but, is this even possible?

[@atousa5752]

Yes definitely, allergy is a big field of research that you can specialise into after you've completed your degree

[@pristineakarifujimaki]

@@atousa5752 Thank you so much for your reply! I truly appreciate it! As of now, my first choice university is Yale but they don't have the specific major of biomedical sciences. Do you think it is okay for me to take other majors like physics, chemistry or biology? So sorry with bombarding you with questions... I live in Japan (countryside) so there are not that many people who can help me answer my questions...

[@dacostaaj8610]

Please, can I offer medicine after my BSC in Biomed and what uni would be better for that?

[@basheerkulangara1719]

Is biomedical science degree all about research?

[@azeemahosman]

Thanks. This video was really helpful..🙂😚. Do you think it's possible to do biomedical science through correspondence ?

[@atousa5752]

I'm glad it was :) and I'm not sure what correspondence is?

[@azeemahosman]

Basically, here in South Africa, we have a university called Unisa and you can study at home without going to a university or seeing a lecturer, so they call it correspondence, and , they do offer biomedical sciences as a course, so I'm contemplating and just wanted to know, do you think it's too difficult to do by yourself, using this method? Or do you think it's possible from your perspective and experiences? 💚🙂

[@christineqi984]

Hi. I got accepted by biomed in university of Birmingham. The course there is accredited by Royal Society of Biology. What is the difference from being accredited by IBMS?

[@atousa5752]

aw try not to worry to much, hopefully you should be okay in college if you are dedicated enough! typically you have to take biology, and I think some universities ask that you take another science or maths, so maybe chemistry or physics or maths, but other universities should be fine with just biology - look on their website and it should tell you :)
