Entry Requirements (требования для поступления)

To enter a medical school in Great Britain candidates must be 18 years of age. They must take BMAT (Biomedical Admission Test) which lasts 2 hours. It tests their general abilities and knowledge. All candidates must have GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) at grade B or A in Mathematics and English. They also must study Chemistry, Biology and Physics at advanced level (A level) before entering any medical school. The competition for places is very high. The staff of the medical school selects candidates for interview and makes the best ones offers of places.

Medical schools charge tuition fees for education. Most students receive financial assistance in the form of grants, which cover their expenses wholly or in part.
