I wanna go to Access to Medicine for 2006 at Kings Lynn. How difficult is it to get in? Is the competition very stiff, and do they require a lot of work experience, other qualifications, ect?

Hey there. Im starting the Access course in KL in september. It all depends what kind of background you have. There are about 300 applicants for 70(ish) places. What kind of background do u come from, eg, qualifications, job etc etc etc

do you have any science A levels/ Science qualifications. What level of degree did you get? first, two one? etc etc Do you have any experience in the health care setting

i dont know. my GPA was about 3.2 or something like that. i have no a-levels, no gcses, and no health care experience. however i did watch my dad die of lung cancer if that coutns for anything.

I'd say that counts for plenty. That must have been very difficult for you.

I would say that getting direct medical work experience should be your next move. I don't know exactly how GPAs work, but am I right in thinking that 3.2 translates to somewhere in the B/B+ area?
