  • Location

    Liverpool

The A101 medical programme has been developed specifically for students who are expecting to achieve at least a good 2:1 Honours degree in a Biological, Biomedical or Health Science subject. Other additional subject and grade requirements exist. There is also a guaranteed interview scheme for applicants on the Liverpool BSc Honours programmes and pathways in the School of Life Sciences and a shortened three-year route for dentists wishing to pursue a career in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The University of Liverpool requires a GAMSAT result as part of the entry requirements for graduates applying to medical programmes. Further details of GAMSAT can be found here: www.gamsat.acer.edu.au/gamsat-uk. The only exception to this is for dentists applying to the oral-maxillofacial route. The latter route will have an independent selection process. For full details of subject requirements, the selection process and details of both the guaranteed interview scheme and oral-maxillofacial route please see www.liverpool.ac.uk/medicine/ undergraduate/admissions Please note: There are no places for overseas students on the Graduate A101 programme. You start Year One of the A101 programme with a two week summer school. You will then join Year Two of the A100 programme and will have access to all Year One resources. For this reason the A101 programme usually commences in mid-August in each year. At the end of Year One, students on the graduate entry programme will sit the same examinations as students at the end of their second year on the five-year programme. Thereafter, you follow exactly the same examination schedule as the five-year programme. The final year is spent gaining intensive clinical experience in hospitals and the community to prepare you for your career as a doctor.

Course programme

Teaching and Learning

The School uses a mix of interactive and didactic lecturing; case based learning, small group teaching, clinical skills and simulation workshops, Human Anatomy Resource Centre (HARC) sessions, clinical placements and technology-enhanced learning.

You have the opportunity to take a year out from the medical programme to study for an additional, intercalated degree, BSc or Masters. A wide variety of subjects are available, examples range from basic sciences, humanitarian aid, to translational, bench to bedside research. You also undergo a five-week clinical elective in which you explore a branch of medicine of your choice. Most students choose to undertake their electives outside the UK, to observe how medicine is practised in another country and to experience a different social, cultural and physical environment. These electives encourage you to develop personal interests and provide you with valuable insight into specialities.

Lastly, the research and scholarship component of the course allows you the opportunity to develop an area of scholarly interest to pursue during your MBChB.
