About the M&D Foundation Programme

The M&D Foundation is taught at Albion College in Central London. Whilst it is suited to people with varying academic backgrounds and progression ideas, it is very popular among students who have not quite met the criteria for the M&D Pre-Med and require some additional tuition.

Students who attain an overall score of 65% on the M&D Foundation will generally receive an unconditional offer for a place on the Pre-Med. International students will require an IELTS grade of 6.5 or above in addition to this.

Duration

The course is one academic year in duration, and there are two intakes a year, one in September; the other in January. All teaching takes place at Albion College, and students have the opportunity to enjoy London and the other areas surrounding the college.

Many UK medical schools and dental schools receive many applications to study medicine or study dentistry and places are very limited. Therefore, the preparation of a UCAS application form for medical or dental school is very important. Online Medical Admission forums are an excellent way to exchange views and ideas on what medical schools are looking for and which medical and which dental schools actually ask the toughest interview questions. The premed course is an excellent way to secure a place at a UK medical schools in the UK or medical schools based abroad. Medical and dental school applicants are strongly advised to get as much medical work experience and possible. Medical work experience seminars and dental work experience seminars consist of a series of medical seminars and dental seminars at a NHS hospital based in Britain. Many students also fine that UKCAT revision and UCAS Personal statement checking is very helpful.
Fierce competition for UK medical school places has encouraged students to embark on medical degrees and dental degrees outside of the UK, such as: Medical schools in Poland, Medical schools in Slovakia, Dental schools in Slovakia, Medical schools in Prague, Dental schools in Prague and Medical schools in the Caribbean.
