Love the video, can you make one about the ucat

[@As-is4iq]

This is an amazing video. My son has got an offer with Kings and will start in Sep 2022. How did you find the exams? How much time did you need to prepare for the tests?

[@hariprabhu9725]

You know what? You remind me soooooo much of Jemma Simmons from Agents of Shield 😂 you are even a bio scientist/doctor like she is! Thanks for the great video btw :)

[@DrTashBinnie]

Oh wow! I don't actually know who that is but thank you!

[@AliHaider-ni7xb]

Hello Dr ! Hope you are doing great , i just saw you videos you did amazing job 🥰 , i am medical final year student ( MBBS ) , can you please explain the PG in dermatology from king’s college ?

[@momtazkhanom4336]

Hi Can you please inform us more about the admission process. What UKAT score needed?

[@KG-td6el]

I noticed Kings has placements in Kent and Sussex as well as London, would you know if this means you spend a whole year/numerous months in areas of Kent and Sussex or do you just spend a few weeks on placement and then return to London?

[@xenne.]

hi, I have a question. When you said on Fridays in first years you’d have a lab science experiment session, what sort of things did this entail in terms of relation to medicine ?

[@DrTashBinnie]

Haha so in first year we were doing the foundations of biomedical science so it was very biology/chemistry type things. It's such a while ago that I can't remember the specific experiments but sort of like a higher end version of a level experiments.

[@starr2870]

this is so random and a little stupid but I suffer with social anxiety especially when it comes to lessons or being in a small group and it goes all quiet, and I wanted to ask what the tutorial groups are like? is it like a loud environment and is it like awkward ? thank u x

[@DrTashBinnie]

Hi lovely, sorry for my slow reply - I think whenever the students aren't speaking, there is like the equivalent of a teacher leading the session and talking if that makes sense x

[@starr2870]

@@DrTashBinnie ah ok thank you x

[@luminous7422]

Tell us about ur sop...🤗🤗...ur videos r fantastic😍😍😍

[@p3p3_Frog]

What A levels did you do? And what were your grades? I’d very much like to go to kings for medicine. Also how long was your medicine course?

[@DrTashBinnie]

I did Chemistry, Biology and Maths and got 2As and 1A* but that was for 2017 entry so I'd recommend checking the university websites for their current requirements also some universities offer lower grades for widening participation students. My course was 5 years but I did 1 more year to do an iBSc so 6 in total!

[@luminous7422]

How was ur interview and tell us some tips too...

[@user-qq1oc2ds3d]

[@subirchakraborty194]

Nice

[@ashutoshranjan7699]

mbchb medicine course is of 5 or 6 years

[@DrTashBinnie]

It’s 5 years but 6 years if you do an intercalated degree in the middle!
