We’ve just got two new books in The Careers Group library which will be very helpful to anyone preparing an application for graduate entry to medicine courses.
How to get into Graduate Entry Medicine
(also available at Queen Mary and Kings careers service libraries)

The Apply2Medicine Guide to Writing your Medical School Personal Statement: your way, successfully
I would particularly recommend this second one, as the personal statement is the most important part of your application. When faced with a host of applications with top academic qualifications, the personal statement can be the deciding factor for an admissions tutor. It is your space to impress with your experience, articulacy and passion. It would be worth booking an appointment at your university careers service to get a careers adviser to check through it.
Remember lots of courses have application deadlines in mid-October – see here for a list of graduate entry to medicine courses – click through on each course title to check the deadline on the university’s own website.
