How I Got Into Oxford Medicine as an International Student | My Oxford Story

[@zoemadison578]

this is so impressive. you're one of FOURTEEN people who got into the medicine course at oxford as an international student. combined undergrad and grad school. i wish to have your luck when i apply.

[@grapefruitsyrup8185]

That's partly because there are a lack of international applicants for oxbridge medicine unlike other courses. The cost is upwards of £500k.

[@AlgSub22]

Soon I'll be the next one who will also upload a video on youtube and share some info's and experiences about how did I make it to get into this Prestigious University .. In God's Grace!♥️♥️

[@muhammadibrahim5514]

so did you got admission?

[@reikasamaendsupwithshousuk2889]

Hi, I hope u don't mind if I ask, if u finished an undergrad course before applying to medicine? Does the school discriminate some countries and may be a reason that can compromise a student's acceptance?

[@williamgodoi9971]

I'd love to know how much u pay for the room, food, monthly payment. And things about medical residency in Oxford, because I'm already studying med and Oxford could be a choice in the future :)

[@ZQmedicinspires]

It tends to vary between different colleges and even different rooms! In my first year I paid £23.34 per day for my room and £20+ is considered normal for college accommodation. Food depends on whether you choose to eat in hall (college catering) or to cook for yourself. It also varies a lot depending on your college (some are more expensive than others). I would say each meal can be about £3-5, so about £10/day for food, but much cheaper if you cook for yourself (about £25/week). You can check this link for estimates of students' living costs: www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/fees-and-funding/living-costs. But ultimately the specific living costs are hugely dependent on your personal spending habits.

Hello 🤗, I'm really so happy and inspired by you right now,I just have a question,were you always a distinction student? The times when you got scared concerning the application into Oxford Med school, how did you handle it?

[@ZQmedicinspires]

Hi, thanks for the kind comment! :) Yes I always had good grades in school (if that's what you meant), and I knew my grades would make it, but the medicine application is about a lot more than exam results - they also look at many other things as I mentioned in the video, and in the end when you get to the interview stage it all comes down to how you perform in the interviews. I was never really "scared" because there was nothing to lose in trying. All the best!

Hi! I am from Turkey and I and doing IB in my school. Unfortunately, we are no able to take biology, chemistry and physics at the same time as part of the program as it is mandatory to have only one science course and one optional. For my higher level courses I take math, chemistry and biology, meaning my physics knowledge is only limited with 9th and 10th grade physics, therefore I am quite concerned that I won't be able make the physics section. Was there a part of the curriculum of the BMAT that you did not cover as part of your A levels? If there was, how did you overcome it? I would appreciate if you give a detailed response. Thanks in advance!
