What steps do I need to complete in order to apply for Medical School?

Applying to medical school can be a confusing and challenging process but having a clear timeline in your head and remaining organising puts you in the best position to have a successful application. The deadline for Medical School applications is October 15th each year. Steps to be completed:1) Personal Statement - Explain your suitability for Medicine and your motivation for applying.2) UKCAT/BMAT - Medical schools will require you to sit one of these aptitude tests. Both have different deadlines for applying and cover different material. 3) Work Experience - In order to get a better insight of what being a doctor entails as well as demonstrating to the medical school that you are making an informed decision in applying.
